Shoot - it's ours πŸ’€

Perhaps this was the order of the officer of the Russian army when they hit a column of their own servicemen.

During another assault in the direction of Kurakhiv, our brigade and neighbors on the flanks managed to stop a column of equipment. Later that day, a group of occupiers was able to land in our zone of responsibility. For nothing πŸ‘€

We felt the fury of the mad drops of unmanned bombers πŸ›©

Through bombastic negotiations, the Russian visitors made the right decision - to surrender. 7 of them got off the landing. Just a catch. As soon as the pilots began to withdraw from the invaders, the Russian army launched a valiant attack. On their own. A few were successfully mowed down - not all of them ended up in the good hands of our brigade...

And how it was - see 🫑

Pretty obviously a fear tactic against their own soldiers to discourage surrendering, because it’s 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.

I’m honestly shocked that fragging russian officers isn’t super widespread at this point

How sure are we that it's not?
