Hard landing of Krivonos General. Why the power for the second time in a month gets into scandals with a military with high rank

HB found out why law enforcement officers were investigating how the famous General defeated the capital's airport and as it is related to his criticism of Bankova. August became the month of "hunting for retired generals". At its beginning, the Ministry of Defense and the SBU began to investigate the activities of "High -rank" person Dmitry Marchenko, one of the key organizers of defense of Nikolaev.

And in recent days, the State Bureau of Investigation (DBR) opened a case of abuse that occurred during the defense of the Kyiv (Zhulyany) airport. The latter was headed by Major General Sergey Krivonos-an experienced military who in 2014 kept 47 days surrounded by the defense of the Kramatorsk aerodrome, in 2019 he was the Deputy Secretary of the NSDC.

Video of the day, as reported on August 28 by the FB journalist Yuri Butusov, "a telegram was sent on the front of the Armed Forces on the front of the Armed Forces on the front of the criminal case against Major General Sergei Krivonos by the State Bureau of Investigation (DBR). " According to him, investigators investigate the possible unlawful actions of Krivonos and ask the military whether there are witnesses during the defense of Kiev.

The journalist published the relevant documents and a statement of Krivonos. In it, the Major General reported that he had opened the proceedings on August 2: “Investigators of the DBR were instructed to declare illegal an order signed personally by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Valery Zaluzhny, about the appointment of me by the Zhulyany Airport Defense Commander, and about enrollment in military service.

Therefore, the custom case was initiated that I allegedly issued illegal orders when organizing the defense of Zhuliany Airport in February-March. ” He got to Krivonos Airport on February 25, - went there to get acquainted with the situation after trying to plant a landing at the Gostomel Airport, and saw that there were not both responsible for the defense and the latter.

The general, according to him, reported to Zaluzhny, which he received an oral order to take command of the airport defense. Krivonos assures that the Armed Forces leadership confirmed all its actions, and on March 13 he was again enrolled in military service. According to Krivonos, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy considers him an opponent, so he ordered to abolish his enrollment in military service, so as not to allow the Zaluzhny to appoint him to leadership positions.

Instead, the DBR stated in its official statement on the resonant case that it opened criminal proceedings on theft of the property of the airport, not "for the protection of the airport". They explained there that "they did not engage and will not be involved in the persecution of the military who are dedicated to the Motherland, but will decisively stop the attempts of some persons to be in the war.

" In addition, the bureau said that within the framework of the investigation, they check the "validity of the military's orders for the removal of vehicles of the airport and other property", as well as investigate the "legitimacy of the order to carry out damage to the runway of airport, which was not conditioned by military necessity. " For his part, the General Staff of the Armed Forces also responded to the situation.

There they denied Butusov's information about sending the DBR telegrams to the front and noted that communication is only through correspondence. The latter is currently only happening from the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff. The General Staff also confirmed that the Zaluzhny from the beginning of the full -scale war appointed Krivonos the head of the airport defense.

But "exclusively as a volunteer and taking into account the combat experience in the defense of the 2014 Kramatorsk airfield. " They added that from February 24 to this day Krivonos is not in military service and did not call for it during the mobilization. "The documents provided in the publication are not grounds for enrollment in military service, including during mobilization," the General Staff said.

- Accordingly, no instructions from the Supreme Commander -in -Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine regarding his dismissal from military service. " The General Staff added that after stabilization of the situation in Kyiv, the airport was protected by territorial defense units, and the Major General of the Krivonos Major General was "released from assistance in the defense of the airport".

"Thus, Sergei Krivonos' public statements about the influence of the President of Ukraine on pre-trial investigation bodies, his dismissal from military service are not true and have signs of discrediting the highest military-political leadership of the state, which is inadmissible during the legal regime of martial law," General Staff.

In a comment to the enemy's intentions, in a comment to Krivonos, he stated that in the case against him the DBR mixed everything he could: "Both protection and protection of the airport, and some theft there. " The military assures that the group of the military, which he headed on February 25, had only one task: to defend the Zhuliany Airport to prevent the Russian landing.

Major General noted that his subordinates in a fairly short time at the airport carried out engineering equipment of positions, mines of territories, built engineering structures to protect personnel, created a fire system. And this "made it impossible to plant the Russian landing on the territory of the airport. " "Yes, we poured gaps on the runway, because it is the best way to stop the enemy's desire [land] in the shortest possible time," Krivonos explained.

He recalled that by February 25, the airport was lost in Gostomel, and there were fighting in the area of ​​Vasylkiv airport. "I, as a person with an experience of 32 years of service in intelligence, realized that the next airport would be Zhuliany," the general said. - The latter at that moment were, are and will be the air gate of Kiev.
