“Poorly trained and poorly equipped ex-prisoners were left to die like cannon fodder, and their command fled as soon as the battle began. The enemy, having met with our paratroopers, decided to surrender, thus saving their own lives,” the statement reads.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, soldiers of the 80th separate airborne assault Galician brigade of the Air Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine captured more than 50 Russian soldiers in the Kursk region on August 6.
