The attacker was detained and handed over to law enforcement agencies. At the time of publication, there were no official comments from the police regarding the incident.
The TCR emphasised that the wounded soldier had been awarded the Order "For Courage" for his combat missions in the Chernihiv region. He also took part in battles in the Donetsk region, was wounded twice, but continued his service in RTCR and SS in the Cherkasy region.
