The Russian information space is filled with material trying to lay blame for the Ukrainian strike on that garrison. Losses are likely in the hundreds, which is interesting because they have tried a lot of tricks to calm the information space. This is one of those tricks, blame the command:

Rashist from Russia about the strike of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Makeevka and the miscalculations of the military command of the Russian Federation

After the incident in Makiivka, one of the servicemen 🇬🇧 — Anton Golovinsky, a private of the 44th regiment, was injured and ended up in the hospital.

“We were told to follow the order, the criminal order of Colonel Enikeev,” he said.

Anton Golovinsky died in a Rostov hospital from severe injuries incompatible with life and burns to 75% of his body.

Of note, this private is dead. This is very Russian. Dead heroes will never contradict the story of why dead heroes are awarded state awards and state funerals. In this case, a private person will also draw the people's sympathy.

This brings me to the police blotter. This channel is essentially that. They know the Colonel is getting the blame. And they write this:

A VChK-OGPU source said that during the interrogation of the commander of 1444 SMEs, Colonel Roman Enikeev, and the chief of staff Vladimir Kuzkin, it was established that they were absent in the vocational school building at the time of the strike
