Ukraine’s National Guard fighters, in coordination with neighboring army units, captured two Russian soldiers in the Pokrovsk sector.

According to the report, a drone with a loudspeaker directed the two Russians — jokingly called a ‘replenishment of the exchange fund’ — toward Ukrainian defenders who were waiting for them
