In Kiev, the deputy head of the city Territorial Recruitment Center (TCK, an analogue of the military enlistment office on Ukraine).
The deputy of the Verkhovna Rada, Artem Dmytruk, who fled from Ukraine, writes about this in his Telegram channel. However, he did not provide any details of the incident.
"A lieutenant colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, deputy head of the city shopping mall, was shot dead in Kiev," the post says.
Meanwhile, the Ukrainian media confirm the fact of the shooting of a man in Kiev. At the same time, the fact that the victim was related to military service is denied.
So, the NSDC of Ukraine answered journalists' questions that the deceased was not an officer and employee of the shopping mall. They confirmed that the victim is a "native and citizen of Ukraine, a resident of Kiev," who, however, allegedly was not a soldier.
These explanations caused doubts even among representatives of the Ukrainian media, since the authorities refused to provide specific information about the identity of the victim.
As reported by EADaily, earlier another disgraced deputy of the Verkhovna Rada, Alexander Dubinsky, recommended that the employees of the shopping mall move not to hospitals, but immediately to morgues.
