Russian prisoners report heavy losses in Pokrovsk sector

Soldiers of the 3rd Operational Brigade, named after Colonel Petro Bolbochan of the National Guard of Ukraine (known as Spartan Brigade), captured two Russian soldiers in the Pokrovsk sector, who reported heavy losses among their personnel.

According to Ukrinform, the National Guard reported this on Telegram.

According to the prisoners, Russian assault troops are fleeing en masse to avoid going on missions and to survive.

The prisoners also report heavy losses among the invaders due to accurate strikes by Ukrainian drones, as well as threats by commanders to “wipe out” those who refuse to go on the assault.

In civilian life, these Russians held various positions, but found themselves in the trenches: they agreed to sign a contract in exchange for avoiding imprisonment.

“There are almost no prisoners in the camps,” says one of the prisoners, because everyone is being taken to the front.

Another prisoner was rescued by Ukrainian soldiers from under the rubble; he had already lost hope and did not believe he would survive.

“Now both swear that it would have been better to serve their time. They say that in prison there is a chance, but on the front line against the Ukrainians, there is none,” the report says.

As reported by Ukrinform, North Korean soldiers captured by Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region have requested to be transferred to South Korea.
