The death of privates Sergey Simonyan and Vladimir Muravyov became known from today's report by the Uryupinsk administration on the presentation of posthumous awards to the families of the military. Biographical details and the date of death were not provided in the message on the official Telegram channel of the administration. 

Thus, at least 1,289 soldiers from the Volgograd region have been officially recognized as killed in the military operation.

The list was compiled based on data officially announced by government officials and law enforcement agencies, according to the "Caucasian Knot" report "North Caucasus Military District Statistics: Losses Are Growing for the South of 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 the Authorities Are Depriving the Families of Killed Volunteers of Benefits", which describes the stories of fighters from other regions.
