I am confident that you will continue to hold the battle flag high and successfully complete your missions," Ryumshyna said.

"Ukrainian Pravda notes that this is the fourth brigade commander in two years.
"This is a very quick change of military leadership within one brigade. No public reason was given for the change of the brigadier. According to UP, not even everyone in the brigade understands why Ryumshyn was dismissed and Yatsyshen was appointed," the newspaper said.
