Ukrainian forces eliminate Russian commander during live interview
Ukrainian forces eliminated a Russian artillery commander during his interview with Russian propagandist NTV channel in occupied Horlivka, Donetsk Oblast, Ukrainian journalist Yuriy Butusov reported on Telegram on July 25.
The commander, Major Timur Khuziev, was the artillery chief of the 85th Motorized Rifle Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces.
Two NTV staff members were also hit by the attack. "On June 13, reports surfaced about the death of NTV operator Vadim Kozhin and the severe injury of propagandist Alexei Ivliev, who lost his arm," Butusov said. "It is now clear that a shell accurately struck the Russians during the interview."
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
