Pretty obviously a fear tactic against their own soldiers to discourage surrendering, because itβs quite well known that UA troops generally try to treat POWs as reasonably as possible. Pretty insane that Russian officers are going to such insane and absurd lengths to discourage desertion and surrender, instead of, you know, doing some actual fucking leadership.
Iβm honestly shocked that fragging russian officers isnβt super widespread at this point
How sure are we that it's not?
I think that's what happened here
