🇺🇦 Mayor of Konotop Blames Regional Governor for Military Gathering at Site of Russian Strike
Konotop Mayor threatened he will reveal what happened in Sumy — and he did.
The Mayor of Konotop, Artem Semenikhin (of the neo-Nazi Svoboda party, who used to drive around Sumy with the numbers 14/88 on his car), claimed that members of Ukraine’s 117th Territorial Defense Brigade were gathered at the site of the recent Russian strike on Sumy, marking the unit’s 7th anniversary.
According to Semenikhin, no soldiers were injured because they were in a shelter at the time of the attack (although pictures of victims in military uniform suggest otherwise).
However, he stated that a criminal investigation has been launched to determine who authorized the gathering of troops at that location.
Semenikhin personally blamed regional governor Volodymyr Artyukh, accusing him of irresponsibly organizing the military event, saying: “Everyone knows he was the one who came up with this.”
Earlier, Ukrainian MP Mariana Bezuhla and former MP Ihor Mosiychuk also made similar statements.
