Governor of Luhansk region accuses Aidar of terrorizing the region

Hennadiy Moskal, the head of the Luhansk regional administration, has called on the Defense Ministry to rein in members of the Aidar Battalion who have been wreaking havoc in the region after stealing ambulances and taking over a local business.

He said members of the group stole two ambulances from a local hospital for their “own personal rides” this week, Moskal said in an online statement on April 1. The offense adds to a long list of misdeeds that Moskal said have begun to alienate the local population and undermine the public’s trust in local authorities. The Aidar Battalion has not responded to the Kyiv Post requests for comment, but the Defense Ministry started a probe in response to these accusations.
