The occupant died on his birthday.

In Ukraine, the commander of the tank battalion of the armed forces of the Russian Federation, Major Vasily Lushnikov, was liquidated.

Telegram channel Union of Russian Tank Troops reported this on Thursday, August 25.

The tank battalion commander of the Russian Army was killed on his birthday - August 23 - "during a rapid attack."

"Vasily comes from an officer dynasty. His father was a colonel. Unfortunately, the body in the tank of "hero" is now under fire. The funeral and farewell to Vasiliy Igorevich will be additionally held in Volgograd," the message reads.

"Dear warriors, who have accurately celebrated Flag Day and Independence Day? One must be awarded the Hero of Ukraine for it. According to the Russian occupants, unknown Ukrainian Heroes repulsed an attack by a tank battalion of the Russian Armed Forces and destroyed a tank of the battalion commander Vasily Lushnikov at 8 a.m. on August 23. I wonder where and how it happened. The history of the War for Independence should properly describe this feat," journalist Yury Butusov commented on Facebook.
