Replacing several values in multidimensional array simultaneously

I have a multidimensional array, e.g.
A(:,:,1) = [1 2 3 ; 4 5 6];
A(:,:,2) = [7 8 9 ; 10 11 12];
I want to replace several of the values in this array with the same value simultaneously. Specifically I want to do this column-wise, the result should be e.g.
A(:,2,1) = [-1 ; -2];
A(:,3,2) = [-1 ; -2];
yielding
A(:,:,1) = [1 -1 3 ; 4 5 -1];
A(:,:,2) = [7 -2 9 ; 10 11 -2];
I attempted this by
B = [2 3]; C = [1 2];
A(:,B,C) = [-1 ; -2];
but it does not give the wanted result.
Any idea on how to do this without performing a for-loop?

A(:,:,1) = [1 2 3 ; 4 5 6];
A(:,:,2) = [7 8 9 ; 10 11 12];
s = size(A);
A(:, sub2ind(s(2:3),[2 3],[1 2])) = 0 % = [0 0; 0 0]

Just replace the RHS as I hint in my answer with "% = [0 0; 0 0]"
A(:, sub2ind(s(2:3),[2 3],[1 2])) = [[-1;-2], [-1;-2]]
