A soldier from the Volgograd region was killed in Ukraine.

Ruslan Aribzhanov from the Novoanninsky District was killed in combat in Ukraine. Since the beginning of the military operation, at least 1,794 soldiers from the Volgograd Region have been officially recognized as killed.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," by May 27, at least 1,793 soldiers from the Volgograd Region had been officially recognized as killed in the military operation in Ukraine.

Ruslan Aribzhanov was born on February 24, 1976, in the city of Karshi, Uzbekistan. After completing 11th grade, he completed his military service in the Armed Forces from 1994 to 1996, the Novoanninsky District administration reported on its VKontakte page.

He signed a contract and joined the BARS (the country's combat army reserve). On June 8, 2025, he was killed in combat.

The governor announced the mistaken mobilization of 379 Volgograd residents

On September 21, 2022, Vladimir Putin announced a "partial mobilization." On October 28 of that year, the Minister of Defense reported its completion to the president, but no corresponding decree followed. Following the announcement of mobilization in southern Russia, attempts were recorded to mobilize people who, due to age or health, should not be sent to the combat zone.

Thus, at least 1,794 soldiers from the Volgograd Region have been officially recognized as killed in the military operation.

The death of a soldier from the Novoanninsky District was previously reported on May 25. Then the authorities reported that Sergey Filippov had been killed in the military operation.

The number of fighters from southern Russia killed in Ukraine has exceeded 9,150

"Caucasian Knot" is maintaining a list of names of natives of the North Caucasus and Southern Federal Districts killed in the military operation. The list was compiled based on data officially released by government officials and security agencies, according to the Caucasian Knot report "Northern Military District Statistics: Losses Are Mounting for Southern Russia."

State awards, memorial plaques, and appearances on Channel One do not guarantee state support for the families of those killed, according to the Caucasian Knot report "Three Comrades Served: How Authorities Are Denying Benefits to Families of Killed Volunteers," which describes the stories of the slain soldiers. In particular, the widow of one of the slain soldiers said that without a body, the battalion did not make payments for the death of the soldier.
