«The complex belongs to the unit of the 1st Special Purpose Air and Missile Defense Army.

• Bariev Denys Andreevich, senior lieutenant, commander, heavily injured;
• Hertsiy Andrey Anatolyevich, senior sergeant, operator, killed;
• Husarov Igor Valerievich, senior sergeant, mechanic-driver, killed.

Luhansk region.
Intriguing, this stuff gets destroyed by the attack weapons, the stuff is supposed to protect against. Are they sleeping on the watch or so and not firing their protection measures ? Or, is this stuff just out of proper working order and only able to fire off towards far away stationary targets ?
