It is dangerous for Ukrainian servicemen to gather in groups, as they immediately become a target for Russian fighters. This was stated by Kirill Sazonov, an officer of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in an interview with the Politeka YouTube channel.
If there are more than three people, there is already a reason for tension, the Ukrainian military noted.
"One person is not a target. Two is a bad target. Three are already tense. You have eight people gathered — that's all, they will work for you from everything," said Sazonov, quoted by RIA Novosti.
One of the recent strikes, according to him, fell on a group of 12 Ukrainian servicemen who "just gathered to smoke." As a result, half were injured, and the rest died.
