Not a day without #InformNapalm and the identified "secondments". Today, here are the tankmen of the 74th motorized rifle brigade of the Russian Federation

Editorial note . We are publishing an interesting piece of information from our partner InformNapalm. This time Irakli Komakhidze During the OSINT investigation, he was able to identify and identify 10 Russian soldiers of the 74th Motorized Rifle Brigade of the RF Armed Forces who took part (as part of the Kremlin's terrorist-hybrid troops) in hostilities both in eastern Ukraine and in Syria.

The tankers of the 74th motorized rifle brigade of the Russian army were identified, the tactical group of which took part in the battles in the Donbass in the summer and autumn of 2014.

The InformNapalm international volunteer community conducted a new OSINT investigation aimed at identifying and identifying Russian servicemen of the tactical group of the 74th separate motorized rifle brigade (military unit 21005, Kemerovo region, Yurga) of the 41st combined arms army of the Central Military District of the Armed Forces Russia, who took part in the battles in Donbass in the summer and autumn of 2014. According to the results of the work carried out, ten out of thirty tankers of the tactical group of this military unit were identified, who left their dirty mark not only on Ukrainian soil, but also on social networks.

The identification of Russian war criminals was carried out by group photographs (s) uploaded to the profile of the social network of a soldier of the 74th Motorized Rifle Brigade, a "veteran" of hostilities in the Donbas Alexandra Nodya September 14, 2014. It should be noted that the first mention of the Yurga brigade as part of the Rostov group of the Russian InformNapalm Invasion Forces dates back to September 2014. And the first photographic evidence of her "Rostov-Ukrainian business trip" was obtained by us in November 2014.

It is noteworthy that the name of A. Nodia and a number of photographs appeared in open sources before. In particular, the InformNapalm publication dated November 7, 2014 presented a series of photographs of servicemen of the 74th brigade, including a damaged T-72 tank and the process of its evacuation. Since at that time the activities of our community were aimed at disseminating operational information regarding the forces and means of the Russian invaders, we did not provide links to the sources of photographs for obvious reasons. A month later, on December 18, 2014, information from a blogger appeared on social networksuyu1, according to which the mentioned tanks (photo from the profile of A. Nodya) were seen in a convoy of Russian military near Sukhodolsk - between Krasnodon and Molodogvardeysk, Luhansk region, highway M04.

Many servicemen of the 74th brigade, who went through a Ukrainian mission, signed at one time the so-called. Non-disclosure obligations of restricted information... Often in their profiles there is not even a hint not only of participation in the battles in Donbass, but also of their belonging to the RF Armed Forces. Despite all these nuances, we still managed to identify 10 invaders.
