A bear mauled a guard at a production facility in Krasnoyarsk Krai.
[Regnum] A security guard at a company in the Boguchansky District in northern Krasnoyarsk Krai died in a bear attack. This was announced on October 23 by District Head Alexei Medvedev.
The incident occurred at a production facility a few kilometers from the village of Boguchany. A bear attacked a guard at night.
"The animal was eliminated as quickly as possible. Law enforcement agencies are currently investigating all the causes that led to the tragedy," Medvedev wrote on his channel on MAKH.
He noted that, according to official data, 67 bears have been killed in the district this season. Medvedev urged residents to be vigilant and to educate children about the dangers, reminding them not to spend time outdoors, especially at night.
A series of other incidents involving bears approaching people have been previously reported. In some cases, the predators attack people. For example, on October 18, in the Pinezhsky District of the Arkhangelsk Region, a bear mauled a 49-year-old hunter who had gone berry picking. Since the spring, according to regional authorities, 28 people have been killed in bear attacks.
According to their information, the wild animal entered the barn through a window.
Earlier, on October 7, in the same area near Ivdel, a hunter shot and killed a bear that was smashing cars in a parking lot. Another predator was discovered and shot on the evening of October 6 in the Ivdel-3 microdistrict on the grounds of a timber mill. The bear had climbed over the fence of a summer cottage community, destroyed a barn, killed, dragged off, and buried a large pig.
Even more from regnum.ru A bear climbed into a school cafeteria through a drainpipe in the Angara region.
In a village in the Irkutsk Region, a brown bear approached a school, destroyed the porch, and attempted to climb up a drainpipe into the wooden building. Its target was the cafeteria, from which odors were emanating. The bear lost its grip on the drainpipe and fell; it was later killed. The incident was reported by the People's Front of the Angara Region on MAX.
The incident occurred in the village of Zalog in the Kachugsky District. There, the animal had approached people twice in the space of two weeks.
According to the ONF, the bear first wandered through the village in broad daylight, just 300 meters from the school. A reserve employee managed to chase the animal out of the village and kill it. Local residents were terrified to even imagine what would have happened to the bear's visit if it had encountered children returning home from school.
The villagers' peace was recently disturbed by another bear, who came at night following the smells from the dining room. The predator broke the porch and railings, ripped out the lock, and then began climbing a drainpipe to the second floor, but the pipe couldn't support his weight. The bear collapsed and rushed toward the apartment buildings, scratching at the windows of one.
"The school custodian noticed the noise and rumble and called the fireman, an experienced hunter. The man immediately realized a bear had roamed the school grounds. The men called 911," the school administration said.
The men drove the bear away from the house, pursued it, and eventually killed it outside the village.
Long. Herewith the opening paragraphs — also a photo at the link of each of the officers in question, for their files, I suppose:
[xxTomCooperxxSarcastosaurus] Now Hiring (Soviet Experience Not Required): ‘The Azov’-Officers assuming Command of 1,200 Kilometres of Frontline
As mentioned yesterday, since September, two major groups of ZSU are - for all practical purposes - ‘under control of the Azov’ (with emphasis on ‘the’).
Specifically, Drapaty appointed (that is: officially it was Zele)
Brigadier General Andriy Biletsky commander of the Group of Forces Centre, and
Brigadier General Denis ‘Redis’ Prokopenko commander of the (‘temporary’) Group of Forces Azov.
The two are thus in command over quite a concentration of forces, including the 1st Azov Corps (National Guard; CO is Colonel Mykyta ‘Raz-Dva’ Nadtochiy), 3rd Army Corps, 7th Rapid Response Corps, 9th Army Corps, 11th Army Corps, and 19th Army Corps…
Now mind: alone the sector covered by Biletsky’s 3rd, 11th, and 19th Corps stretches from Kupyansk-Vuzlovyi in Kharkiv Oblast, down to Kostiantynivka in the Donetsk. As another example, Prokopenko’s 1st Azov Corps is presently including the 12th SF Azov Brigade (CO Lt Col Bohdan ‘Puhach’ Hryshenkov), 1st Bureviy Presidential Brigade; 8th Harmash Artillery Brigade; 14th Chervona Kalyna Brigade; 15th Kara Dag Brigade; 20th Lubart Brigade; 41st Pilum Unmanned Systems Regiment, 52nd Forge International Assault Regiment… and the 425th Skelia Assault Regiment.
While turning down the offer to become the Commander of the Ground Forces, ZSU, Biletsky began his new job by reshuffling the command of his forces. The 3rd Army Corps is now commanded by Dmytro Rohoziuk (former CO 60th Mechanised Brigade); the CO 11th Army Corps is now Emil Ishkulov (former XO 7th Rapid Reaction Corps), while Valerii Skred (former chief of staff 7th Corps) took over the 19th Corps.
Prokopenko…well, didn’t really assume command over a new force. Actually, his 1st Azov Corps was expanded through the addition of a division-sized 425th Skelia Assault Regiment to create something like a ‘specialised task force’, tasked with reinforcing the frontline, integrating drone warfare and stopping the Russian advance into the rest of the Donetsk (‘division-sized’ because, as explained again and again over the last year, Syrskyi was stuffing all the reinforcements he could get into ‘his own Assault Troops’). Correspondingly, he handed over the command of the 1st Azov Corps to his trusted deputy (Col Mykyta Nadtochiy) and brought his chief-of-staff 1st Azov Corps (Col Arsen ‘Lemko’ Dmytryk) to serve as the chief-of-staff of his new position.

Addendum: To be clear, I don't blame the Ukrainians at all. They're literally fighting for their survival and one has to admire the ingenuity. And the Russians also hacked Starlink.
