The National Police is investigating a series of attacks by military personnel via Telegram: One of them drank whiskey with methadone during a video date. The serviceman communicated regularly with the girl via video link. During another conversation, she invited him to drink the bottle of whiskey she had given him. The girl watched him and took a video of what was happening. However, the methadone drink was prepared and sent on her behalf by another person, acting on the instructions of the curator. The soldier is dead. Acting Head of the National Police of Ukraine, Maxim Tsutskiridze, spoke about this in an interview with UNIAN. This year, the police are investigating 20 criminal proceedings regarding the death of 22 military personnel in eight regions of Ukraine and Kyiv. At the same time, law enforcement officials still do not claim that all of these deaths were the result of murders: in some cases, the causes of death are still being established. Memo to the army: do not drink alcohol, drugs or other substances of untested origin. Even if it's a gift from an old friend. Asking someone for a drink or something to drink on camera is a red flag. Video calls and real dates do not guarantee safety. Even a familiar person can act on the enemy's instructions. End a suspicious contact if they persistently ask you about your service, demand confidentiality, or request a private meeting. Save correspondence, account details and phone number. Call 102. Do not try to expose the interlocutor yourself. Pravda Gershchenko / Submit Content / Eng X / Bluesky / What is Telegram / Threads.
