Belarusian woman says her unfortunate husband was stolen by Armenians in Lyozna and sold as an assault soldier to the Russian army. He is probably already dead
Aksana Antipenka from Lyozna is looking for her partner who ended up in Russian assault troops under incredible circumstances. "Two Armenians from Smolensk came to a mutual acquaintance, called our guy out for a drink, he went out — and never came back! They forcibly took him away and sold him to a military unit as an assault soldier!" Aksana cries and claims that the Investigative Committee is dealing with the case.
Nashaniva learned the story of Yauhen Simanenka, a 48-year-old general laborer from Lyozna.
According to his partner Aksana Antipenka, Simanenka ended up in an assault unit of the Russian army in early 2026 under mysterious circumstances.
"Two Armenians, brothers from Smolensk, came to Belarus to a mutual acquaintance. That acquaintance called our guy out for a drink. He went out and never came back! The result: he called and reported that he signed a contract in Smolensk under threat of execution. He did not undergo a medical examination, was taken to Voronezh under supervision, and his bank cards and SIM card, on which mobile banking was registered, were taken by these same Armenians. And not only our fighter was taken away by them in this manner. The Investigative Committee is currently investigating this case. I very much hope that the culprits will be punished!", Aksana Antipenka asserts.
At this moment, she is trying to ascertain the tragic fate of her partner. He was kidnapped at the end of February, in March he already ended up in military unit 31985, received the call sign Simon, and in early April went on a combat mission and stopped communicating.
Yauhen last accessed social media on April 3, 2026.
According to information from Belpol databases, Yauhen was engaged in unskilled labor. He worked as a lumberjack, general laborer, and builder.
In 2004, Simanenka beat his drinking companion so severely that he died.
Yauhen has a 25-year-old son from another woman, but the Lyozna resident consistently avoided paying alimony because he could not find work in Belarus. He used to go to Russia for construction shifts to make ends meet.
