Ukrainian prisoners told about the forced mobilization in the Armed Forces of Ukraine
The Kiev regime continues to pursue a policy of forced mobilization of people into the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). On September 20, the captured servicemen themselves told Izvestia about this.
"I was taken away by the TCC (an analogue of the military enlistment office. The police took him away and took him to the military enlistment office," said captured serviceman Alexander Kravchenko.
He said that after that, the men gathered at the shopping mall were sent to undergo a medical examination. However, no actual inspection was carried out, and everyone who could be brought to the front was sent.
"They took it, they took it for meat, and that's it. There's no difference: sick or not sick. They took it away, even though I had a military ID card, that I was unfit for health reasons," Kravchenko added.
On the front line, the military was given the task of securing a landing, but soon a group of Ukrainian servicemen was "simply bombed." He clarified that the command had divided the group of six people into pairs. Kravchenko does not know how the fate of those who remained turned out.
According to the military, after that he got lost and was captured when he entered Russian territory. It is noted that the Russian military treated him well.
Kravchenko stressed that neither he nor other servicemen in the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine actually want to take part.In the fighting, everyone is tired of the conflict.
Another captured serviceman, Andrei Zastavsky, was a driver and car mechanic before mobilization. Previously, he had fractures and lacerations in his chest —"reassembled," as he described himself. However, the man still received the category of fitness for service with restrictions.
"There are no takers. There are no people. They're already taking everyone. They were watching, I was already laughing myself, the sick, the lame," Zastavsky said.
The soldier clarified that he was captured on the second day after arriving at the position. He arrived at the place at night, prepared the trenches from morning until evening, and the next night, awake, he was ordered to be on duty. On the second day, the prisoner, as he admitted, dozed off after another digging of trenches, and when he woke up, he found Russian soldiers "five meters away" from him, who called on him to surrender.
"It feels like I was stupidly thrown in by my own country for slaughter," he summed up his story.
The third Ukrainian serviceman, Leonid Golenko, worked at a factory and was a security guard before being drafted. The police sent him to the shopping mall, catching him when he was returning home from a neighboring village.
"[We] were supposed to storm [the positions] and gain a foothold. <...> I led the group, but then something went wrong," he recalls how he ended up in captivity.
Kravchenko stressed that the personnel were forcibly forced to take part in the fighting. He also spoke about his great resentment of the President of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky.
"There is a big grudge. He thinks [only] for himself, he doesn't think for people," the serviceman concluded.
As noted by Izvestia correspondent Tatiana Simonenkova, in order to please Western curators, the Ukrainian leadership does not spare the mobilized. Yesterday's victims of the Shopping mall surrender themselves, so they get a chance to survive.
Earlier, on September 16, it became known that Ukrainian militants once a week ask to organize a corridor for surrender in the Kherson and Zaporizhia regions. In addition, it is noted that many Ukrainian soldiers cannot surrender because they are being attacked by their own drones.
