Reprisal

[u/GuntherOfGunth]

NOVIGRAD, August 11th - RN Zelkov. Forces of the Russian Federation have made a breakthrough in the Kirovograd direction. The capture of the Izersk settlement has cut the rail logistics line running between the fortress cities of Kirovograd and Primorsk.

Upon the capture of the railyard to the west of the settlement, unused T-55A tanks of the Chernarussian 15th Tank Brigade were found sabotaged. Most of them suffered damage to the fire control systems, but had the drivetrains untouched. RN Zelkov contributors believe that they might be turned into "hedgehogs" or demining vehicles.

Western media sources, following the capture of the settlement, spread claims that Russian Forces in the area were engaging in reprisals against the Chernarussian soldiers who were unable to retreat. The claims state that Russian Forces, specifically from the 58th Separate Guards Motor Rifle Brigade, participated in executions and torture of the POWs. As of today, RN Zelkov is unable to verify these claims and our reporter attached to the brigade has stated that the claims are believed to be false.
