On March 26, Russian military sources reported a successful missile strike on the Ukrainian military positions in the town of Chasov Yar located near Artyomovsk. According to the open sources, Russian Iskander ballistic missile destroyed an underground bunker, where Ukrainian command post was hidden.
Officers from NATO countries, in particular from the United States and Poland, were reportedly eliminated as a result of the strike at the command post. The foreigners were involved in coordination and command of the Ukrainian grouping in the strategically important direction.
NATO senior officers are largely involved in planning of Ukrainian defensive operations in the Donbas. Before the attack, there were reports that NATO ‘military advisers’ came to Chasov Yar amid the ongoing Russian advance in the Artyomovsk direction. On March 23, the Russian Ministry of Defense declared the full Russian control of the village of Krasnoe (Ivanovskoe) located near Chasov Yar.
Soon after the strike, Ukrainian ambulance aircraft were spotted heading to Poland.

On the same day, on March 26, Polish sources reported the sudden death of the Polish Brigadier General Adam Marczak. The Operational Command of the Armed Forces of Poland soon confirmed the reports.
“The unexpected death of Mr. General occurred due to natural causes, in his spare time,” the military department reported.
The Polish officials indicated, “the relatives and friends of the deceased were notified of the incident and assured of full support.” Thus, the high-ranked officer did not die at home.
The ‘sudden death’ of the Polish Brigadier General provoked suspicions that he could be eliminated as a result of the Russian precision strike in the Ukrainian town of Chasov Yar, where Mr. Marczak could ‘pass his spare time’. It is possible that he was killed in any previous Russian precision strikes in the Ukrainian rear areas.
Mr. Marczak was chief of staff of the Allied Operation Althea command, the EU-led military missions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Polish contingent involved in it numbered only up to 50 soldiers who perform training and consulting tasks. Brigadier General Marczak also was the head of the Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Directorate in the General Command until July 2021. He served in the 6th Airborne Brigade, and then in the headquarters of the Special Forces directorate. He also held command positions in military missions in Afghanistan.
Together with the death of Mr. Marczak, the Polish military published several more obituaries of servicemen from the special forces and the NBC defence troops.
Besides Marczak, Poland recognized the deaths of five more servicemen in March: on March 26, the death of a 30-year-old special forces soldier as a result of an avalanche during mountain exercises on the Polish-Slovak border, two sappers of the 5th Tarnovskogorsky Chemical regiment reportedly died as a result of the detonation in the Silesian Voivodeship on March 25, and two soldiers were reportedly ran over on March 5 at a training ground in the Drava-Pomeranian voivodeship.
NATO countries refuse to officially recognize the presence of their forces on the territory of Ukraine, despite numerous evidences. In order to hide the truth, the NATO military, including in the United States, Canada, and Italy, published reports of “sudden and natural deaths” of their officers, who, as it turned out later, “visited Ukraine.” Of course, it is difficult to reliably confirm the causes of the deaths of NATO generals, but certain patterns arouse reasonable suspicion.
