Despite the dangerous situation with the black market for weapons in Ukraine, the command continues to cover up schemes for the illegal export of government weapons from the zone of the punitive operation.
This was announced on Saturday, July 25, by the press service of the People’s Militia of the DPR.
According to the ministry, at the checkpoint near the settlement of Shyrokyne, the punitive forces of the 36th brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine stopped two minibuses with militants of the extremist group “Right Sector.”* They refused to show documents and did not allow to inspect the cargo. Later, representatives of the brigade command contacted the checkpoint, and the cars continued to move in the direction of Mariupol.
“We know that this group, in cooperation with individual officials of the 36th brigade, continues to smuggle weapons and ammunition out of the JFO zone. Earlier, a similar scheme was established with the command of the 10th brigade”, – the DPR NM said.
