"The prisoners spoke in memorized phrases, saying that they had arrived in Ukraine, allegedly to protect the civilian population from the 'Nazis' and liberate 'their' lands. At the same time, they tried to convince Ukrainian defenders that they had been serving for less than a year, and during this time they had not received proper combat training and had not fought, that the units were demoralized and had no motivation to carry out assault operations.
One of the prisoners said that he had already refused to participate in hostilities, after which he was sent to the "pit", and that he returned to the front for fear of imprisonment. According to the detainees, the Russians are being mobilized, threatened with criminal liability for refusing to participate in the so-called "special operation" for a period of 8 to 15 years in prison, in return they are promised the prospect of quick enrichment and social guarantees," the National Guard said.
