According to the military intelligence of Ukraine, on April 18, this year, a serviceman of the 2nd Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade of the 2nd Army Corps of the Occupation Troops fired a machine gun at 15-year-old girl. After the committed crime, a criminal made an attempt to escape to the territory, controlled by Ukrainian units, but was detained by pro-Russian mercenaries near Shchastia settlement. Intercepted telephone conversation of militants is evidenced of this.

Also, in accordance with DIU data, some Russian media outlet has been already instructed by the Russian FSB to prepare and disseminate fake news on allegedly involvement of the servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in this crime.
