Timur Myasnikov, a special forces colonel of the GRU of the Russian General Staff, who died as a result of the terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall in the Moscow region, took part in the hostilities in Kosovo and Tajikistan. The head of the Samara branch of the «Officers of Russia» organization, Arthur Malivanchuk, spoke about this on his page on the social network «VKontakte.»

«A combat officer who fought in Kosovo and Tajikistan has been destroying nationalists in the Donbass for the last two years. Just a few days ago he came on vacation to his family in Moscow,” wrote Malivanchuk.

He also said that the officer managed to take his wife and son to a safe place, but at the same time he himself came under terrorist fire, he was hit by three bullets. Doctors fought for his life, but to no avail.
