Girkin hinted that the attempt to get to the front line had failed.
Russian terrorist Igor Girkin (Strelkov) reacted for the first time to reports of his alleged visit to the occupied territory of Ukraine – to the Crimea, and then to the Kherson region.
He wrote about this in his Telegram channel on Sunday morning.
“To comment on Igor Nikolaevich Bezler is not to respect yourself. I haven’t been to the bullpen and I don’t plan to. Sooner or later I will definitely be at the front (this war, as I warned in advance, will be long and hard). But not right now,” – briefly he wrote.
Judging by this post, Strelkov did not manage to get to the front line in southern Ukraine yesterday.
What preceded this
On Saturday, Igor Bezler, the former commander of the Gorlovka DPR militants, said that Strelkov was detained in Crimea while trying to get to the front of the fighting between the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Russian Armed Forces in the Kherson region.
Information also appeared on the network that Girkin got to the peninsula using a fake passport, in which the name Sergey Runov was indicated. Later, information appeared that Girkin still managed to break through to mainland Ukraine.
Later, the details of the incident with Strelkov were revealed by Alexei Arestovich, adviser to the head of the OPU. “According to some reports, he was released and allowed to fight in the Kherson region. So we have a chance to see this” heroic “man somewhere near Snegurovka, going on the attack,” he said.

I doubt he tried very hard.
I doubted he tried at all. Terrorists are cowards by their very nature.
Where there is a will, there is a way. Clearly, Strelkov doesn’t have the will. He knows and announces a lot of truths, regarding the deplorable performance of the cockroach army, so he also knows too well that he wouldn’t survive for very long in the front line. He’s just playing the big, brave man, hoping this will encourage the discouraged cockroach swarm. A sorry PR gag, if you will.
Liked Sir English, Sir CapW, and Sir Facts’ comments.
I believe the only way he would really go to the front lines is if he had a gun pointed at him to do it. His face may well be on one of the cards of a Ukrainian deck. Many from the west would happily “assist” in his lobotomy.
