His hospitalization in the Kursk Regional Hospital was confirmed to the Defense Ministry's Zvezda TV channel. Soon this information was confirmed by Poddubny's employer, the VGTRK television and radio company. The Z-war correspondent was wounded as a result of a UAV attack.

The video allegedly shows Poddubny being hospitalized.

He wasn't a good guy but he was a journalist and a non-combatant, wasn't he? I don't think you're supposed to deliberately kill people like that.

He was in a military vehicle.

Yes, Poddubny was driving a Peugeot Landtrek pickup truck, diesel, with Z marking. The car was equipped with EW against FPV.
