“As a result of the explosion, the invader involved in war crimes was destroyed,” HUR wrote.
According to HUR, Pervukha was the so-called “chief of staff for the service of the troops and security of the military service.’”
Since Russia started its full-scale Ukraine invasion in February 2022, HUR has carried out numerous assassinations of military targets via car bomb in Russian-occupied territories.
