Shoot - it’s ours 💀
Perhaps this was the order of the officer of the Russian army when they hit a column of their own servicemen.
During another assault in the direction of Kurakhiv, our brigade and neighbors on the flanks managed to stop a column of equipment. Later that day, a group of occupiers was able to land in our zone of responsibility. For nothing 👀
We felt the fury of the mad drops of unmanned bombers 🛩
Through bombastic negotiations, the Russian visitors made the right decision - to surrender. 7 of them got off the landing. Just a catch. As soon as the pilots began to withdraw from the invaders, the Russian army launched a valiant attack. On their own. A few were successfully mowed down - not all of them ended up in the good hands of our brigade…
And how it was - see 🫡
Pretty obviously a fear tactic against their own soldiers to discourage surrendering, because it’s quite well known that UA troops generally try to treat POWs as reasonably as possible. Pretty insane that Russian officers are going to such insane and absurd lengths to discourage desertion and surrender, instead of, you know, doing some actual fucking leadership.
I’m honestly shocked that fragging russian officers isn’t super widespread at this point
This is not true, many POW’s have tried to commit suicide rather than being captured, because they were told they’d be tortured to death if they were captured.
These soldiers surrendering are acting against the propaganda they’ve been fed.
It’s not within the officer’s power to dictate how a conscript is treated in the churn. In that situation, I’d probably take the risk of getting shelled by either side, instead of the certainty of getting killed in combat or court martial (or whatever the fuck they have in Russia) for desertion.
How sure are we that it’s not?
I think that’s what happened here
