The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference: 19336
Logged by: Nikita Kalinin
Email address: n(dot)kalinin(at)postgrespro(dot)ru
PostgreSQL version: 18.1
Operating system: ubuntu 22.04
Description:

With this parameter in postgresql.conf: debug_parallel_query = on

If you execute the query: SELECT pg_sleep_for('5 minutes');

and then kill the postgres process with signal 9, you get the following in
the log:

2025-11-27 06:44:27.263 UTC [643318] FATAL: postmaster exited during a
parallel transaction

Maybe the Assert shouldn't be printed to the log, and only the following
output should remain?
postgres=# SELECT pg_sleep_for('5 minutes');
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.
