The death of fighters from the Kamyshinsky District was previously reported on May 25. At that time, authorities reported that contract soldier Igor Agapov and mobilized soldier Dmitry Kryzhko were killed in the military operation.
"Caucasian Knot" maintains a list of names of natives of the North Caucasus and Southern Federal Districts killed in the military operation. The list was compiled based on data officially released by government officials and security agencies, according to the "Caucasian Knot" report "Northern Military District Statistics: Casualties Mounting in Southern Russia."
State awards, memorial plaques, and appearances on Channel One do not guarantee state support for the families of those killed, according to the "Caucasian Knot" report "Three Comrades Served: How Authorities Are Denying Benefits to Families of Killed Volunteers," which describes the stories of the slain soldiers. "As a family of military pensioners, I receive only 12,000 rubles a month for my two minor children," the widow of one of the slain soldiers said.
