In the Russian troops participating in combat operations against the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Orikhiv direction, mass desertions have occurred. This was reported by the press officer of the Southern Armed Forces, Vladyslav Voloshyn.


According to Ukrainian intelligence, the 58th Combined Arms Army of the Southern Military District of the Russian Federation is operationally active in this combat direction. In this army alone, more than 4.5 thousand soldiers have been found to have illegally left their units and are hiding from the military.
