The Russian army destroyed the battalion commander of the 80th Separate Air Assault Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces near Artemovsk (Bakhmut) . Captain Alexander Sozansky was a staunch nationalist. He began his service in 2014 in one of the branches of the Ukrainian nationalist organization Right Sector banned in the Russian Federation.
Information about the death of battalion commander Alexander Sozansky has already been confirmed to the city council of the Lviv region.
Alexander Sozansky became famous for posting photos and videos of dead Russian soldiers on social media. Additionally, the militants routinely videotaped their intimidation of captured Russian soldiers.
It is known that he was an active member of the Golden Gate Punitive Battalion. In 2018, he graduated from Lviv University and joined the ranks of the Ukrainian army. After the start of a special military operation, Sozansky received under his command a company of the 80th separate air assault brigade. Later, Alexander Sozansky rose to the rank of battalion commander.
Recall that it was the militants of this formation who fired on the Russian soldiers captured in Makeevka in November last year.
The Lviv Rada reported that the deceased battalion commander was survived by his parents, sister, grandmother and fiancée.
