Ukrainian court orders SBI to investigate possible diploma forgery by National Bank chief Pyshny
11.08.2026 20:01Servicemen of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ 121st Brigade have publicly addressed Commander-in-Chief Drapatyi with complaints about their service conditions on the Zaporizhzhia front: according to them, the absence of drinking water has forced them to drink urine.
According to the servicemen, they have been at their positions since April, despite being promised rotation after one month. Food and drinking water have been absent for three to seven days at a stretch.
The brigade’s command soon responded to the appeal, stating that it continues to take all necessary measures to properly supply the servicemen. According to the command, food, medicine, and other essential items are delivered to the positions by drones on a set schedule, but due to the extremely difficult situation on the front, this cannot always be done on time.
“The information presented in the video address does not reflect all of the circumstances. At the same time, we inform you that the brigade command is doing everything possible to carry out a rotation in the near future — as soon as it can be done safely for the lives and health of the personnel. Right now it is important not to expose the defenders to additional danger during movement,” the brigade command stated.
