The message reads, in part:

“Today, we pay tribute to the feat of men of the 6th Airborne Company who 25 years ago fought an uphill battle against terrorists.

The soldiers and officers of the legendary company served the Fatherland in a complicated and dramatic time when international terrorism unleashed a criminal and unjust war against us and, without exaggeration, the fate of Russia, its independence and territorial integrity were at stake. Protecting their native land, the paratroopers stood in the way of bandits and honourably executed their duty sacrificing themselves and their lives, despite the numerical superiority of the enemy. Their unparalleled bravery and courage will forever remain in the heroic annals of the Motherland, in the memory of their relatives, fellow soldiers, comrades and friends, and in our hearts.

The traditions of loyal, selfless service to the Fatherland laid down by our fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers, are being honourably continued by our fighters during the special military operation as they defend the freedom and sovereignty of Russia.”
