Such information was disseminated in social networks, in particular, on telegram channels broadcasting pro-Kremlin rhetoric. Reports say that the commander of the territorial defense units, Ihor Tantsiura, was killed in Bakhmut. Like, the Ukrainian TRO is stupid as the Russians quickly managed to neutralize the enemy. It is not true.

The fact-checkers of the VoxCheck project drew attention to the case, and determined that the information was not true. The Territorial Defense Forces also denied this information. TRO spokesman Denys Zelinskyi said in a commentary for Suspilne about “all goals”. After that, the commander of the 127th brigade of the TRO of the Armed Forces of Ukraine also told the Suspilne that there had been an unsuccessful attempt to kill the commander Tantsiura.

Let us remind you that earlier analysts of Detector Media denied the fake that Russia had liquidated all the commanders. In addition, we refuted the case about the destruction of another TRO commander.
