The occupant served in the ranks of the ‘elite’ Taman division.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine liquidated the Russian major-occupier, who had Alexander Nevsky nickname in social media.

33-year-old Major Alexander Shevtsov was the commander of the howitzer self-propelled artillery battalion of the 2nd Guards Taman Motor Rifle Division. The native of the Meleuzovsky district of Bashkiria has been fighting in Ukraine since February 24. OSINT expert and investigator Irakli Komakhidze told OSINT about it.

“Alexander Shevtsov studied at the Kolomna Artillery School, then at the Kazan Higher Artillery Command School and graduated with honours in 2011. He served in the ranks of the 2nd Taman Motor Rifle Division. He took part in "SMO" [Special Military Operation - Ed.] from February 24, 2022. The farewell to the major was scheduled for February 7, but new reports talk about postponing the funeral to February 8. Another fault of the Russian Post,” Komakhidze said.
