He is now sharing insights to Ukrainian counter-intelligence officers.
Soldiers of the 128th separate Zakarpattia Mountain Assault Brigade have captured a Russian lieutenant colonel. He was in direct contact with Lieutenant-General Mikhail Zusk, commander of the Russian 58th Army, to whom he personally made daily reports.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to a military officer of the 128th separate Zakarpattia Mountain Assault Brigade, Yaroslav Galas, on Facebook
"Take a look at this 'chubby'. The head of the group of information and psychological counteraction of the military unit 47084 of the Russian army Koshel Alexander Olegovich. Born on April 5, 1982, personal number F-905994, military rank - lieutenant colonel. New prisoner of 128th separate mountain assault brigade of Transcarpathian army who was captured during a skirmish with a unit of the 58th army of the Russian Federation. Permanent place of deployment in / h 47084 - M. Vladikavkaz, Republic of North Ossetia-Alania," Galas wrote.
According to Galas, Russians threw considerable forces to liberate Koshel immediately after his capture. Among other things, the aviation flew up. It attacked our aircraft. However, no one was injured as a result of enemy fire; the prisoner was taken to a safe rear place.
"During a personal search, the soldiers of the 128th Brigade were surprised to discover that Lieutenant Colonel Koshel was wearing underwear and socks with the inscription 'Armed Forces of Ukraine' on them. It's an eloquent proof that RosArmy staffers admit - even AFU underwear and socks are better than the underwear of the overpraised 'second world army'," Galas noted.
According to him, Koshel was in direct contact with Lieutenant General Mikhail Zusk, commander of the Russian 58th Army. Koshel personally reported to him on a daily basis.Incidentally, Zusko himself hails from Ukraine - from the small village of Vetly, Kamen-Kashirsky district, Volyn region.
"Now he is fighting against Ukraine, but quite unsuccessfully. The 58th Army of the Russian Federation tried to move deep into our territory in the Mykolaiv direction and a week and a half ago was utterly defeated by the Ukrainian Armed Forces (including units of the 128 Brigade). After that, Zusk was informally nicknamed 'the most talentless Russian general'," Galas said.
Now the captive Koshel is testifying to Ukrainian counter-intelligence officers.
