Captured Russian on meat: how the Russian army shot at its own

Daniil Bukarev from the city of Ryazan, who served in a Russian brigade, was captured in the Lyman direction. According to him, he joined the army to reduce his prison term, but he was “thrown to meat”. After a week of training, he was taken to Yampil.

“Understanding where we were hiding, they opened fire on us,” said the Russian about the attempts to escape along with other occupiers.

He also expressed gratitude to the Ukrainian defenders who rescued him and another captive, and for the medical assistance and food provided. The Russian also addressed his compatriots, urging them not to trust propaganda and not to participate in combat against Ukraine.

The President of Ukraine stated that most of the Russian prisoners of war were brought from the Dobropil operation. Prisoners of war were detained in the areas of Dobropillya and Pokrovsk.

Two prisoners of war from North Korea, who fought on the side of Russia, appealed to be transferred to South Korea due to psychological issues and attempts at self-harm.

The text has a quite light style and is not filled with excessive formality. The message tells about a Russian prisoner of war who ended up in Ukrainian captivity and shared his impressions of the conflict, as well as about other prisoners of Ukrainian descent and from the DPRK.
