In Volgograd, the garrison military court is considering the criminal case of 34-year-old special military operation (SVO) soldier Viktor Semenov, who left the unit for more than a month. v1.ru writes about this.
The investigation believes that he did not return from vacation, wanting to take a break from service. Victor himself says that during his vacation, his ex-wife Maria became seriously ill and died in intensive care, and there was no one to leave his 10-year-old daughter Elena with.
According to the man, on September 13, 2025, his ex-wife and daughter were admitted to the hospital. Maria was in intensive care with double pneumonia and died on September 22. Elena was in the hospital all this time without a legal representative. The girl's father took her from the hospital.

Only in June 2026 did the court order to consider the report - this took 11 months. “The commander could simply say: come, we’ll solve the problem. And they seemed to deliberately ignore it,” says Victor.
