“Left over from Soviet times”: MP Skorokhod explained the reason for the strikes on Ukrainian military training grounds

After Russian strikes on Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU) training grounds, the sites are being restored without relocation — which later leads to repeated attacks.

This was reported by Ukrainian MP Anna Skorokhod in an interview with the political YouTube channel Superposition.

In particular, she said that strikes have repeatedly been carried out on a training ground in the Chernihiv region, where a “crazy” number of people have been killed.

“The notorious training ground in the Chernihiv region — how many times has it been hit? How many victims were there? An enormous number of casualties. Has anything changed? Well, today, thank God, it seems they’re finally going to move it somewhere. Safety measures must be applied — the entire life of the personnel should be moved underground: living quarters, food… So that there’s no chance of striking and completely destroying them,” the MP said.

She noted that most training grounds have remained unchanged since Soviet times, making them easy to locate — even on Google Maps — and therefore predictable targets for strikes.

“Most of the training grounds are from Soviet times — we all know that, it’s no secret. Everything is marked on the maps. You can just open the maps — and it’s all there. Moreover, we keep getting hits in the same places,” Skorokhod added.

It should be recalled that another strike was carried out yesterday on a training center in the Kirovohrad region, resulting in deaths and injuries.
