Re: One sentence - Russian to English
Here's my own suggestion, which I don't like and is incomplete.
Now held in camp division [?] No. 50 of the UPVI [Administration for POW and Internee Affairs] of the Ministry of the Internal Affairs of the Moscow Region.

Re: One sentence - Russian to English
I am translating a Soviet VVS document. Can someone clarify the last sentence for me? I do not know what ZA means, maybe ground observers/defence.
The Lightings shot down 2 Yak-9 in the air combat. Pilot Lt Shipulya died. Lt Zhestovskiy bailed out. Lt Krivonogikh , shot down by “ZA”, died.В воздушном бою самолетами Лайтинг сбито 2 самолета Як-9. Летчик мл. л-т Шипуля погиб, л-т Жестовский спасся на парашюте. Л-т Кривоногих, сбитый нашей ЗА, погиб.
