“Our task was to seize a trench and wait for a replacement. We realized that we were left without food, ammunition as well as water only when we were directly at the location. Help never came, because it was destroyed on approaches,” the occupier says.
As assault began, the Defenders of Ukraine offered invaders to surrender. Since russians had no weapons, they agreed. Then, the occupier stated that he had not seen any “neo-Nazis” or “fascists” that russia is so vigorously talking about. He also said that they were not beaten or tortured.
“No one beat us in captivity, we did not see any Nazis. Perhaps something needs to be changed in russia, because so many russian citizens have already died, as well as many russian women have become widows. It is better to go to prison, avoid mobilization in some way than participate in war in Ukraine again,” the invader believes.
At the same time, Oleksandr Syrskiiadvised all russians to stay away from Ukraine because invaders would not stay alive for long on its territory.
“I would like to ask putin why he put so many russians lives?” the commander asked a rhetorical question.
