Military correspondents analyzed issues related to our fighters being captured by Ukrainians

Until recently, Russian officials, in contrast to the Kyiv regime, avoided the topic of Russian prisoners of war and their exchange, and the media were mainly busy covering individual cases of enemy surrender and demonstrating the testimony of captured militants. Now the approach has changed: exchanges are commented on at the official level, while the press is actively broadcasting footage of the return of the released fighters. However, the circumstances of their capture are practically not disclosed.

Military correspondents from the TG channels "Rybar" and "Military Chronicle" tried to fill this gap. As indicated in their analysis, approximately 80% of the fighters who were captured were volunteers (35%) and called up from the reserve (45%). Among those mobilized, these were people from the people's republics of Donbass, since the end of September - from other subjects of the Russian Federation.



At the same time, regular military personnel find themselves in the hands of the enemy much less frequently and are mostly incapacitated: 80% of the considered category of fighters are among the wounded.

Among the reasons for the surrender is the lack of regular officers. In units formed from mobilized, reservists become commanders, half of whom do not have the skills to manage personnel. In battle, they are unable to assess the situation and give the necessary orders, due to the lack of which the soldiers become a disorganized mass, unable to resist.

Another reason is the ignorance in some cases of personnel about the combat situation. The servicemen could not only not have information about the location of neighboring units, but even not know the combat mission assigned to them. Being disoriented, they fled from the battlefield at the first onslaught of the enemy and easily found themselves captured.

The third reason is the lack of strong-willed determination in some fighters. Problems with motivation concern mainly the part of the volunteers who decided to earn extra money at the front, and those mobilized, who did not understand the need for their participation in the conflict and its essence. Indicates cases when fighters, having the opportunity to hit the enemy, did not use weapons because of fear.

Of course, conclusions should be drawn from this analysis made by the military correspondents in order to further reduce the risk of our soldiers being captured by the enemy.

      It is clear that here "all the cards" are in the hands of the counterintelligence, it is now their direct duty to establish the reasons for the surrender, to identify those whom the SBU and the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Armed Forces of Ukraine managed to recruit.
      But so far, the only thing the military correspondents are right about is the number of our exchange fighters, and it almost falls short of 1200 people. And if we have data, how much more data do they have of ours?

But if you look back and figure out how much has already been changed .... to be honest, I have already asked this question several times. The number is scary.

      The question is serious.

      Even very serious. There will always be prisoners, in all wars, the main thing is to draw conclusions and minimize their numbers. Therefore, any opinion and analysis is important here, especially from military correspondents. They work directly on the ground, in the thick of things. Now, several working groups are working under the President of Russia, specifically on the issues of NWO, I think this issue will be discussed there as well. We will not decide anything here , we will only stir up the Society .

          No order is needed. In September, amendments to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation were adopted. For voluntary surrender, if I'm not mistaken, 10 years of strict regime and the possibility of half the term of leaving for the UFIs was canceled.

          In addition to working groups under the President of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to create a working group of military psychologists under the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and study this problem thoroughly in order to avoid something like this in the future. But it is quite obvious that when training fighters, more attention should be paid to moral and psychological preparation and their behavior in difficult situations.

        Why? More details between.

        There are many reasons. The military commander is an unofficial person and expresses what he sees with his own eyes according to his understanding. This is his purely personal opinion. Let me explain my attitude towards them. When the events took place in Minsk, some of the Russian correspondents conducted their reports from the ranks of the BChBeshnaya riffraff, telling everyone how the "light" forces are fighting the "Lukashenko regime, if desired, footage of the detention of one of the current military correspondents in the Donbass. So there is not much faith in them, yes and bloggers are like that, they say what listeners like. And remember the work of correspondents on Dubrovka and the captured maternity hospital in the Caucasus, the spirits directly said that they knew from the TV what was going on around them. Please note that there are no military correspondents in the units of the Armed Forces In a war, events are buried from coverage by the masses.Something like this, I think.

                  It was Pavlov who blew both the beginning and 200.
                  There were directives dated June 18 that Pavlov did not fulfill, but for example, Liepaja's defense hero, General Dedayev, complied
                  even a day before the start of the war, N. Dedaev gave the order to withdraw troops from the barracks for exercises and disperse them 15-25 km around the city. Thus, the first wave of fascist bombers bombed the empty barracks of the garrison.

            In the Second World War, the fighter knew what he was fighting for. There was motivation, there was ideology.
            And now, what motivation should a mobilized citizen have? Who has everything left in civilian life.

            What are the goals of SVO.
            Why are they throwing him, and not the military personnel who are sitting in the districts,
            Will they use another gesture of goodwill, depreciating everything that was won back at a great cost,
            And he will also look at how deputies warm their belly in Mexico, while ordinary men are in the trenches.

      This is not the opinion of military correspondents, these are statistics. Among the volunteers, half go to earn some money and receive some kind of benefits.
      We called them rubbish people or ,, I wouldn’t go on reconnaissance with such ,,. These have always been. Well, the last 30-35 years have generally produced human material that can hardly be called people. Moral qualities at a plinth. Well, there are enough commanders. Every second fighter from the LDNR who has gone through battles since 2014-2015 and is still fighting is considered to be one and will give odds to a number of military men.
      But the military correspondents do not agree on something. Many prisoners in camouflage are not military, but civilians, captured for one reason or another by the SBU or the Armed Forces of Ukraine and passed off as military men to rescue their own. These are up to 50 percent somewhere. There was a video of conversations with such transferred as prisoners of war. The children participated in the voting in referendums. With the arrival of the Ukrainians on the territory, someone passed them. They were put in the dungeons and then put in exchange. And ours accept everyone as prisoners of war.

    It is necessary to advance and defeat the enemy, then there will be fewer prisoners. And to blame the prisoners for the fact that they themselves surrendered to captivity, regardless of the situation, we have already gone through this. "a soldier of the Red Army does not surrender" the prisoners are considered suspicious, etc. It is necessary to understand in each specific case. Maybe someone ran out of BC, maybe they left him surrounded, maybe he got wounded. The experience of the Great Patriotic War was supposed to teach respect for all fighters. For example, I know cases when pilots were captured, shot down during a sortie. how is it with them? Is the lack of officer cadres to blame or low motivation? Not! it's just that in combat there are all sorts of situations!

      Motivation is acquired over the years of life. The children of the revolutionaries entered the Second World War, and the participants in the Civil War themselves were old men. What happened in our time? They introduced the idea that the main thing in a person is his personal life Not the fate of his kind and country. Not the great petty became the main thing.

    The third reason is the lack of strong-willed determination in some fighters. Problems with motivation concern mainly the part of the volunteers who decided to earn extra money at the front, and those mobilized, who did not understand the need for their participation in the conflict and its essence. Cases are indicated when fighters, having the opportunity to hit the enemy, did not use weapons because of fear.

    This is once again about the preparation of the mobilized. Not only the ability to use weapons, but also motivation, preparation of the psyche, and elementary testing.

      It's not just about preparation. If the commander is not next to you, but is watching you from a drone, and chasing you on the radio, will this greatly increase morale? Moreover, you see the area, like most of your comrades-in-arms, for the first time in your life, and your "native" unit is scattered, say, in five different positions (.

    Recently, footage was shown on the central channel where one fighter fires at the enemy, he runs out of ammunition and he retreats to his own asking for ammunition. Not only do they ignore their own, but just skerry behind shelters, do not attempt to shoot in the direction of the enemy. The fighter curses them, demands to shoot at the enemy, to do something, but they only huddle against each other behind the wall and sit like paralyzed, there are many of them 10-15 people. The fighter runs back into the depths, and finds zinc with cartridges, where another fighter sits and fills magazines. He gives GG stuffed stores ... this video ends. What is the probability of being captured by these fearful fighters? Who are they? Judging by the visible elements of equipment and ammunition, these are not mobilized yesterday, who were collected from the world one by one.

    We do not have military officers in the army in the state. And those who call themselves "commanders" are impostors (they called themselves from the word "themselves"). Nobody taught them this job. On my own mind. Who, what, much. And the more "him" in the cell, the cooler he is. There are no obligations. There is no responsibility. Look at Sladkov. The camera is on a long tripod and its entire "muzzle of the face" is in full TV screen. Speech is underdeveloped - cannot connect two words. Instead of using the camera to scan the surrounding area, showing us carefully all the subtleties, he shows his face. Fuck (plant), we need it in the screen. We need the environment around and the right related interesting speech. And how many of these are on the screen ... They even invite you to TV. Is this the color of our reporting?

    Among the reasons for the surrender is the lack of regular officers.

    There are three categories of prisoners.
    1. Who got wounded or something like that - there are no questions about those.
    2. Those who surrendered themselves - there are no questions about those either, but with the opposite sign.
    3. Who was afraid of death or just scared ... I don’t know what to do with these. Can castrate? Because they are not men.

    After the last transfer of prisoners, one of the released - clean and without signs of beating, said that he had been in captivity for 10 days. Before that, I had complete sympathy for our prisoners. But then doubts arose.
    Surrender panicking? To avoid this, it is necessary to introduce new units in the defense gradually, mixing with experienced ones.

      For me, the attempt by some state figures, and the media, is generally incomprehensible ... to make heroes out of prisoners, for whom a pre-investigation check was not even carried out.
      Or maybe he committed a crime before surrendering or was recruited by the enemy more than once.

    I had to sit in the district military enlistment office in 1981, there was a blockage - the veterans of the Great Patriotic War were changing their certificates. He made extracts from personal files. I read, among other things, the papers of those released from captivity, in the end, by the date of being captured, I could tell WHERE it happened. Yes, I was in the officers' accounting department. Typical entries in the file and military ID:
    ..... July 1941 - lieutenant, appointed commander of an anti-tank rifle platoon ..... regiment ... division ..
    ...... 24.09.1941/XNUMX/XNUMX (obviously - Kyiv) - was captured.
    ..... 1941 - April 1945 - worked at a mine in Bremen (conditionally), released by American troops.
    MAY - AUGUST 1945 - SHOOTER (?????) of the 127th reserve regiment.
    August 28, 1945 - commander of the 3rd battery of the 14th division of the 15th rifle division of the Volga military district.
    ALL of them were not driven to the Gulag, but to the reserve regiments for verification - how did you get captured, what did you do there, were there those who collaborated with the Germans?
    I talked to them - how was it in this regiment? They say that they were fed according to the 2nd rear nome (nasty) and drill drills. For 3 months, they called me in for interrogations three or four times. Neither the kidneys beat off, nor the needles under the nails.
    Then they served as officers, although they didn’t make a special career - the army was sharply reduced.
    HERE AND NOW I think that all these exchanged people will be driven through the filter.
    with the right conclusions.
    And do you remember, recently 11 of our "heroes" of the DVUM surrendered to Ukrainians?
    And the Ukrainians were indignant that they dishonor the title of Russian soldiers.
    And they shot them the fuck for educational purposes.

    Where did they get this understanding from? In adults, sometimes already middle-aged men, who were suddenly torn from their wives and children, from home and work, and sent into a cold trench under artillery fire. Has anyone explained to them the need for their participation in the conflict? No, when at the very beginning they talked about denazification and demilitarization, they assured that there was no such need and swore they would not go to war. And then they continuously told how the operation was going strictly according to plan, ahead of schedule. And then all of a sudden, without admitting a single mistake, not a single defeat, without even moderating optimism in the slightest, they suddenly demand 300 civilians for the front.

    The shortage of officers is an important element of the problem, but there are probably no career sergeants who can be trained more in a short time. Such training must be organized as soon as possible. Ignorance needs to be addressed through the introduction of tablets and career sergeants.
