Scandal surrounding "Kvartal 95": comedians used a video of a dead soldier
Quarter 95 again got into the center of a scandal due to an unsuccessful humorous number. The artists used the video of the fallen defender from Ternopil, Yury Nazarenko, in their release, which caused outrage among the family and friends of the deceased soldier.
Disrespectful act of "Quarter 95"
During one of the humorous numbers of the "Kvartal 95" studio, a video from the front was used, in which a dead soldier Yury Nazarenko appears in a daze. Artists including Yevgeny Koshovoy, Yuriy Tkach and Oleksandr Pikalov performed dance moves and sang while joking about negotiations with Russia.
"When I saw these dancing girls, my heart broke. A feeling of rage and misunderstanding flooded in. They smeared their faces, what a "good job". But does "Quartal 95" have respect for missing and dead servicemen?" — a close relative, Yuriy, was indignant.
Society's reaction and family demands
The family and friends of the deceased defender demand that the number be removed from all platforms. They believe that the use of videos without permission, especially when it concerns the dead, is unacceptable. Society also joined in criticizing the actions of "Kvartal 95".
Apologies to "Quarter 95"
Local Telegram-publics report that the "Kvartal 95" studio has already apologized to the family of the deceased. However, the video still remains online, causing further outrage.
Conclusions and consequences
This scandal not only affected Yuriy Nazarenko's family, but also caused a wide resonance in society. The use of videos of fallen servicemen in humorous numbers is a matter of moral ethics that requires careful rethinking by content creators. Will "Kvartal 95" learn from this lesson? Future actions of the studio will show.
