Footage is shown of a group of Ukrainian servicemen surrendering in the Kurakhovo area

Footage has been published online showing a large group of Ukrainian servicemen who surrendered to the advancing Russian army during clashes in the area of ​​the city of Kurakhovo.

In the published footage, one of the prisoners, who identified himself as Vasily Krakhmal, on behalf of the 16-man detachment that surrendered, says that they could not withstand the rapid onslaught of the Russian Armed Forces during the storming of Kurakhovo and decided to surrender in order to save their lives.



Due to the deception of the Ukrainian Armed Forces commanders, the poor provision of Ukrainian servicemen with weapons and provisions, and the futility of further resistance against the trained professional units of the Russian Armed Forces, the enemy military often has only one chance for salvation - to surrender. According to the prisoners, a significant number of them arrived at their positions on January 2, and four days later, on January 6, they decided to surrender, since the command refused to give the order to retreat.



Currently, the Russian Armed Forces are forming another cauldron for Ukrainian Armed Forces units to the west of Kurakhovo. After the liberation of the village of Shevchenko and the further advance of the Russian Armed Forces to the village of Andreyevka, the Russian army's offensive continues to the south, in the direction of the village of Dachnoye, where the remnants of Ukrainian Armed Forces units retreated from the liberated Kurakhovo.

In addition, Russian troops are trying to cut off the H-15 highway, which connects the urban-type settlement of Constantinople with Dachny. The loss of this logistical artery will significantly complicate the already difficult situation of the Ukrainian garrison in this section of the combat contact line.

    ...and these ones will have to be fed at our expense... are they at least sent to socially useful work, or do they just eat and sleep there in captivity?

      or they just eat and sleep there in captivity

      There really isn't much information on this issue. But our guys made a pretty good video with the prisoners...

          Yes, we don't have enough people in our factories. It would be nice to give at least ten for participation in the VSU, if they are not involved in committing crimes. Let them work for food, it would contribute to the development of the economy. And if they are involved, they should "smear their foreheads with green"... How long were the Germans in captivity after the end of the Great Patriotic War, it turns out about 10 years...

            Well, that's it. It's probably not worth letting them into special production - they might be exchanged back later, but digging and burying, unloading and loading is quite possible, for example coal from wagons - let them work. Why not?

            I imagined how some resident of Odessa, a Russian, was "busified" - this is when they grab him right on the street, threaten him with prison, beat him (not threaten to beat him - but actually beat him) - send him to the training ground, and then to "zero".
            And here he is, sabotaging the orders of his commanders to the last - he managed to surrender, where he meets you - offering him ten years just because he was dragged by force into the Ukrainian army.
            And how are you, after this, better than the Banderites for the pro-Russian citizens of Ukraine?

              Well, the conditions you listed are most likely isolated. Alas, in Ukraine, many still (even now) support the VSU. Recently, they reported on a social survey in Ukraine and the percentage of support for the VSU is very high - 90 percent... The population is Nazified, no conclusions are made... request

                And I'm talking specifically about isolated cases - because some people have an approach in the style of "kill them all, God will take his own."
                Well, even if we take the Nazified ones - yes, they hate Russians, but should we judge equally those who volunteered and those who were grabbed on the street?
                Here many are already suggesting to kill simply for hatred even those who did nothing - in essence, for "thought crime". For beliefs. And how will we then differ from them?

                  For Nazi beliefs. Don't worry, there is no death penalty in Russia now. Prison is a threat, of course... Usually such "convictions" do not lead to anything good, but only to long terms. And if you are unlucky, then to death during detention...

                Unfortunately, in Ukraine, many people still support the Ukrainian Armed Forces (even now). Recently, a social survey was reported on

                Your mistake is that you put an equal sign between the Armed Forces of Ukraine and Banderovites. Comparatively few people support Banderovites. And they support the Armed Forces of Ukraine because they protect nenka from the "aggressor"
                You just can't get it into your head that we are aggressors for them. And this is a normal reaction for totally politically illiterate people.
                Understand at last, they have been living in a vacuum for 30 years, in which only furious Ukrainian propaganda reigns. Television is the main source of information. Journalism is all under the government. Few managed to escape - Diana Panchenko. Watch her videos on YouTube, if you are not too lazy.
                Now, V. Karasev has started to speak more or less truthfully about the reasons for the SVO. But he is still a goose. Lyusya Arestovich has also started to speak, but with her own patriotic quirk. They dream of doing something so that capitulation looks like a victory. No more, no less. laughing

It seems to me that when the West stops helping them, simply abandons them, they will hate it, the West and the USA, with a fierce hatred. That's when their eyes will open and they will understand who is their enemy and who is their friend.
                    They, at least some of the top, are already beginning to understand that not NATO, but only Russia can become a guarantor of security for them. Following the example of Belarus.

                        And in order not to be unfounded, I quote Putin’s words:

                        The collapse of the USSR was a catastrophe, as 25 million Russians found themselves outside their country, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, Interfax reports.


                        "I've often heard criticism that I regret the collapse of the Soviet Union (...) The most important thing is that after the collapse of the Soviet Union, 25 million Russians found themselves abroad overnight. And this is truly one of the greatest catastrophes of the 20th century," he said in an interview with American director Oliver Stone, which aired on the Showtime television channel on Tuesday night.


                        Oops - not 20, but 25 million.
                        I will remember.
                        But, of course, we are talking about Ukraine as a whole - where there are not 25 or even 20 million Russians, but, as far as I remember, 17% in 2001, or 8 million people. If Putin had simplified the process of obtaining Russian citizenship for Russians, millions of Russians from Ukraine would have moved to Russia long ago.

                    Again nonsense - because it was very difficult, long and quite expensive to obtain Russian citizenship before the war. Too much bureaucracy. Paradoxically, sometimes it was easier for Russians to obtain EU citizenship than Russian citizenship. And various Tajiks and Uzbeks - as a rule, obtain it faster than Russians from Ukraine.

                        The issue is that for Russians, obtaining Russian citizenship under a simplified procedure is currently non-existent in principle. And moving to the Russian Federation is simply long, difficult and financially unaffordable for many. Let's take, for example, a simple rural Russian Vanya from Ukraine - what can he buy in the Russian Federation if he sells his mud hut inherited from his grandfather? Nothing. He won't even buy a shed. With what he sells, he will be able to transport some of his things, and upon arrival, he will not be able to buy an apartment or rent housing - the rest of the money will run out very quickly. And without Russian citizenship, they don't hire many people for jobs.

                        They probably didn't want to move "badly enough".

                Well, you never know - I've been following the conflict for a long time, and I've seen something like this several times. Now I regret not saving it in my bookmarks, although it's unrealistic to save everything for every occasion.
                Besides, you didn't take into account that a Russian person will have to sit among Banderovites, so he doesn't say anything extra, so that his cellmates won't kill him later. And the Russian authorities and command don't care about Russians so much that they can't even tell a Russian from a Banderovite, they are the same as you - if they are in an enemy uniform, then they are an enemy. So they treat both Russians and non-Russians as enemies.

                well why
                The Russian Armed Forces have a Bohdan Khmelnitsky Battalion or a Maksym Krivonos Detachment, formed from captured Ukrainians
                There is a video of them on YouTube, look at their motivation, as a rule they say that they are fighting for Ukraine in alliance with Russia against the current government

There are no "busified" ones there! They are the ones who piss boiling water before the "drive". And when they tell you about payment, about the opportunity to loot...

                There are plenty of busified people there - no need to lie here. And it happens that someone shot back and then surrendered and started telling fairy tales - and it happens that someone surrendered himself, which, by the way, is not so easy - because there are many cases when their own people were killed for this. And you, in the best traditions of the fascists, suggest lumping everyone together.

                      I am not spreading anything. I have expressed my opinion. If the people were against it, they would have joined the partisan detachments long ago. I have seen enough of these "good" ones in the north of Siberia. Many were afraid to return home even after rehabilitation = fellow villagers remembered these "good" ones well. And don't use this template - as if I am spreading something about good and bad Ukrainians, transferring it to nationality. This is inappropriate here. The "good" ones left this country long ago 404. The GOOD ones are in the trenches of Donbas. And the "very best" are drinking vodka in the pubs of Kiev. And when they are "busified", they finish their vodka in the DPR, killing civilians. And when a hangover sets in - captivity, everyone suddenly becomes white and fluffy. Watch any video with prisoners. Like monologues from the theater: they twisted them, brought them, shoved a machine gun into their teeth... The commanders are sh-t, and I shot into the air... And when our specialists get into the phones of the "good ones"... They shouldn't shoot them there, they should impale them there. Even on this page there is a video = why didn't they surrender earlier? A whole crowd. There are no officers. They would have stopped shooting, they would have hidden in the basement. No, they stood until the last, until they saw hopelessness. One good thing is the exchange fund. Even if they are all exchanged for one of ours, I will applaud. The life of any of OUR soldiers is worth much more. And as Solovyov said, if the Kievites are razed to the ground, we will rebuild. The main thing is the lives of OUR soldiers and citizens. I have expressed my opinion. I suggest you ask people about this on the streets of Russian cities. I believe that after your first statements... However, let's not make predictions. The flag is in your hands. Solve this dilemma on the streets of Russia.

Have you read too many books about partisans? Then you should know that most partisan detachments that did not have help from the "mainland" were soon either destroyed or sat quietly until the end of the war and did nothing special. And those who did receive help - themselves did not liberate a single large city.

                        - Don't talk nonsense. Many people simply didn't have the opportunity to leave Ukraine - both because of the high complexity of obtaining Russian citizenship, and because of the lack of funds for moving and settling in, and for social reasons, such as caring for sick relatives.

                        What are you talking about? I didn't know... I lived there for over 20 years. Why do these people "pound" until their last bullet, looting, burning, killing, raping civilians? Only a few surrender - and all the drivers, cooks... I'm not making this up. They show it on our TV. Why don't you watch? And the President talks about it - is he also deceiving us? Listen, dear sir - if you need to take care of them, take your parents with you and take care of them here. With citizenship? Yes, there are problems. But I remember how my neighbors jumped for joy, although they only heard the Ukrainian language in their villages. But they asked every day, mangling the language - why do we speak Russian. These are simple "Soviet" neighbors, with whom we lived in "our" house for 17 years. Many of them happily took the Ukrainian oath, some refused and later left for the Russian Federation. They did not give up their personal files. And for some reason they all fed Moscow and the Muscovites. I don't give a damn about their opinion. I know for sure that there is no such country as Ukraine - there is a suburb of Russia. I believe that soon it will be torn to pieces and everyone will forget about this country, like a bad dream. And you will see with your own eyes how they change their shoes in the air - they will not even remember their "surzhik". I served in a town - there was not a single Russian school - and this was back in the days of the USSR. But no one wanted to learn the language. And since 1991, they dug up embroidered shirts from chests. Well, if they like it that way, let them - they just shouldn't have climbed into Lugansk, Donetsk, Mariupol. And about the lack of funds when moving - that guy is a lousy one who did not find a way to make money. There were always jobs at the factories (even the remaining ones). Yes, they paid a pittance, but I still earned extra money... And now I have everything: a house, children, grandchildren - all with excellent education and all love Russia. And they remember Ukraine as a bad dream. P.S. Good luck to you. Et qui ambulat dominabitur in via.

                        "About "by 1654..." - and they were not Russians. Earlier, let me remind you, there were Eastern Slavs in general. And "Russians" was not an ethnonym but a DEMONYM - a name for people by place of residence. And only centuries later it was transformed into an ethnonym. Ukrainians and Belarusians developed from that part of the Eastern Slavs that were under the occupation of other peoples and states - it is not their fault that they became Belarusians and Ukrainians, and not their fault at all. Moreover, earlier - Ukrainians after the reunification, in all the big wars, for the most part, fought on our side.

            The Germans were fewer. By 1949, most of the prisoners had been repatriated. The highest-ranking officers and others who had been sentenced to 25 years remained in captivity. But they too were released after negotiations between Adenauer and Khrushchev. The last Germans (including those convicted of war crimes) left captivity on January 20, 1956.

Central Asian specialists do not come here because they are in demand at home. The scum come to us. Young, illiterate, impudent. They try to get jobs as drivers, market sellers, in all sorts of shawarma shops and other easy jobs.

          So that's why they surrender, so that later they can sleep and eat well in captivity, knowing that nothing threatens them and that they will end up at home. And before surrendering, they fiercely resisted and counter-attacked the positions of our RF Armed Forces, but after shooting at the ammunition and "sharpening" the dry rations, they decided to surrender.

They just couldn't educate them. By ignoring education (teachers' salaries), we get what we get. Keeping life-sentenced prisoners is also apparently profitable.

            The question is: how much will a hired worker earn doing this work?
            Probably as much as is needed to support his family, pay for utilities and other expenses. It is from these "salaries" that food for the prisoners and the salaries of their guards will be bought. Even though the guards are paid for by the Ministry of Defense. So, using prisoners for various jobs is economically advantageous.

        Who is fighting? A detailed answer can be found at the link. These conscripts caught on the street are usually not even trained, but are immediately used as expendable material. They are not even trained. They relatively take care of the trained troops.

        . About the corps structure of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

        Using materials from colleagues, the Z Committee and the ZVI Search Engine summarized all available information about the new corps system of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, about the reforms of which they wrote in MilitaryMaps.

        The point is this: in addition to various reforms such as tax cuts for military-industrial complex enterprises and recruitment through recruitment, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have finally reached the finalized corps system.

    On the topic of surrender, but not VSU-ers. The English "Daily Mail" has revealed the secret of the absence of captured North Koreans. Well, a dishonest British newspaper can't lie so brazenly. And that's what it turns out to be, and who would have thought? request
    North Korean troops sent to help Russia are being used as "human mine detectors" on the front lines of the invasion of Ukraine, a military official says.

    Thousands of North Korean soldiers have been sent to fight alongside Vladimir Putin's besieged forces in Ukraine.

    But Lieutenant Colonel "Leopard" of the 33rd Separate Assault Battalion "Big Cats" of Ukraine showed that their lives mean little to their superiors.

    He told the Times: "The North Koreans have a 'meat grinder' strategy. Where the Ukrainians use machines to clear mines, they use people."

    "They just walk in single file, three or four meters apart. If someone is thrown back by an explosion, the medics go after them to collect the dead, and the crowd continues to walk in single file. That's how they get through minefields."

    Prisoners should be treated differently. If someone surrendered without using up their ammunition, that's one situation. If he shot back until his last bullet and then raised his hands to save his life, that's a completely different situation. And if you caught a foreign mercenary, it's better not to take him at all.

But here's the question: we feed them, we support them, but how loyal will they remain to Russia after the conflict? Just forty years after the Great Patriotic War, I met Ukrainian individuals who wanted to get a swastika tattooed on themselves, and these were "Komsomol members" from the city of Voroshilovgrad.
