“I didn’t pass the medical examination, they said right away that I was healthy. Three horns of four cartridges - that's all the training. The level of training is very poor,” said the captive soldier.
“At the position, we buy ammunition, machine guns, grenades, body armor at our own expense. The same goes for helmets,” the prisoner added.
Both captured soldiers noted huge losses on the front line among their colleagues.
“There were 100 of us, and less than half remained. What can be the fighting spirit or morale after that,” says the captured fighter of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
