Don’t bunch up has to be applied along the whole line of contact. Assume you are under drone surveillance 24×7 because you likely are.
Maybe they have a traitor on their hands…
I think awards ceremonies are not worth it, at all.

Smells like another informant to the orcs here, hopefully they are found and brought to justice
Fkn officers. It’s always some fkn officer. Could just walk up too each soldier in person, but no, has to make some show of it. Ffs.

Fuck 😡🤬😠
That’s horrible!!!!
The exact location of the awards ceremony should have only been known to those who arranged it and those who attended it.
It’s likely this was caused by a hacked device, but with occasional arrests of Russian agents putting targeting coordinates on their own neighbors, the specter of entrapment looms large.
The fact they can even hit a known target accurately doesn’t crop up very often….
Be safer warriors.

Guys, please don’t hold award ceremonies on the front lines!!
> According to the military, the Russians hit the personnel of the 128th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade with an Iskander-M missile.
Unfortunately these ballistic missiles have a 500 km range and a 500-700 kg warhead, and very short warning time. Like with ATACMS, you can’t get many troops in one place or they will get attacked even from a long range.
Fuck! Opsec opsec opsec.
💔🇺🇦
Sigh…. come on…. this is the kind of stuf we were doing in the first week of war…. how is it happening again? AND NEAR FRONTLINE??
This is literally on same level of stupid as that Russian commander getting himarsed while giving speech. Only thankfully, much less dead.
Повага.🏴🇺🇳💙💛🇺🇦🌻Respect💦.
Fuck sake that’s 20 GOOD ones too
Rip heroes ❤
Russia doesn’t have a monopoly on shit spec-ops after all
This is basically a reverse of what we have done to the Russians a few times.

Lessons need to be learned
[Defense Ministry to investigate award ceremony incident](https://kyivindependent.com/defense-ministry-to-investigate-award-ceremony-incident/).
I cannot believe this happened, after Ukraine bombed a similar situation in occupied territory.
Two words:
Never. Again.
