ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.พ. 2025
- Two Russian prisoners, Vladislav and Mikhail, joined Wagner mercenary groups led by Yevgeny Prigozhin until his death and went from prisoners to soldiers in Ukraine -- until they surrendered and deserted to Ukraine.

I think they both understood that return to Russia while Putin is still alive would not be good for their health.
They can also choose to stay prisoners in Ukraine until end of the war. They cant be forced to go back in Russia.
@@DevonHensley211 There is no law to protect POWs from being forced back to their home country in prisoner exchanges or other terms of negotiation. This is incentive for countries to keep POWs. It also means that there is no garauntee of safety as a POW if returning to Russia would result in an execution. As such potentially the safest thing to do would be to volunteer to fight for the other side.
Are they the same criminals everyone talked down upon when they was able to fight for Wagner to get out of jail ooooh now there held in high regard because they joined Ukraine side’s people make your mind up
As for their health, or any future for that matter, ask Prigozhin. Oh, wait... I'd say, if they want to, keep them, train them for a meaningful civil purpose in life as well, and let them help rebuild Ukraine. There's plenty of work to do.
@@incognitofee7623 Russia treated them as canon fodder, no wonder they change d their mind! Any sane person will change their minds if it’s clear you have been lied to. But I guess that’s beyond your comprehension? Russian serfs are not allowed to think for themselves!
"Exploratory attack" is also called "reconnaissance by cannon fodder."
Wagner special reconnaissance operation
sounds like the penal battalions they sent over during Order No. 270 in Stalingrad WW2
As South Park told us - Operation: Humanshield
I guess Russians wouldn't want to harm their actual Spetsnaz for reconnaissance, so they use useful idiots. That really shows just how badly trained Russian troops are, to throw unskilled soldiers into battle because they need their very very few good ones for show. It's just laughable at this point.

"Free"? More like "under new management". Or removed from existence, as some of their new commanders dream of.

Those who are not afraid are the biggest fools. People should love life and make it beautiful instead of ugly.

Comes to show how well The Russian generals treat their own troops, or "meat" as they call them. Why else did Wagner rebel?
Yes, and the mentioned severely wounded held in frontlien for 2 days, without proper medical care...
1. They were criminals.
2. They had an option of joining or not to join.
3. Wagner did really well against Ukraine, It's a respectable position in the Russian army.
5. Wagner lost almost 1:1 troops against defensive side that requires 1:3 to destroy.
4. This is propaganda and seems you bots are prone to it. Studio quality, Ukrainian made channel, this easily in 5 hours made video has racked up 700USD already.
@@fraided88
Wagner were always criminals, as long as they served Putin, they were pardoned. But when Putin treated them poorly during the Ukraine war, they rebelled causing Putin to kill their leader and dissolving Wagner into the rest of the Russian army. So why *this* war we ask, what caused Putin's most loyal group to suddenly decide "no, we don't like the way you're doing this?"
They dont do that, show me one single piece of proof that they do that.
They rebelled against shoigu, not putin. Wagner loved putin till the end

They're the smart ones.Their chances of living just went up significantly.
in all wars, its the innocent and poor that pay the price.
It always makes me feel extremely fascinated while I'm watching a video about the ongoing war in Ukraine because we can keep abreast of lots of details about the current war thanks to technology; image just for a few second that what kind of things (which we cannot know because of lacking technology of those times) happened during the wars of the past centuries, it would be so awesome to make an interview with the participants of Napoleonic Wars, for example. Thus, our descendants maybe will have a great opportunity to be informed about our current world.
Except it provides room for misinformation on a scale previously unheard of.
@@ДокторЯдоSure; there's such a disadvantage of course. Plus, I think it will be much more complicated with the developing artificial intelligence (For instance; in my country, the ruling political party made a fake video in which terrorists support the opposition leader for elections, and some voters of the government believed in it though it was a fake video which was generated by AI). Yet, despite all of these, it's a unique experience to watch the clashes from a combatant's GoPro :)
@@onurcankocak2668
Don't you think it was one of the main reasons why so much was invested into developing AI?
@@ДокторЯдо Actually, I'm not sure that the developers of AI has a main intention to create an alternative reality to manipulate the ordinary people, but regardless of whether they have that kind of an evil purpose or not, states and governments has been using the technological developments for evil purposes for centuries of course. For example, if I'm not mistaken, Alfred Bernard Nobel invented dynamite, but people invested into dynamite not only to use it for opening new quarries, but also to k*ll each other unfortunately.

Imagine that feeling when you turn back and they hand you a shovel (person prob knows immediately whats about to happen) and they are forced to start digging their own (zero way out or anywhere to run what would you do?
my first instinct would be to flee but if you have an armed guard watching over you you would have to take him out first somehow. But thats easily said as i have never been in such a situation. But since i was shown a lot of brutal videos by weird people i kind of decided in my head its allways better to fight and be shot to die quick than to have to dig a grave and then be killed possibly in a painful slow way.
@@sickmit3481there are also chances where they would torture you first after shooting you in the leg etc.

Honestly USA should send our prisoners to fight in Ukraine . The prisoners would volunteer of course. Even 1 percent prison population is at least 10k soldiers. Plus all the prisoners that were in the military.
Both good soldiers, if the russians had any concept of value on soldiers like this they wouldn't be in the position they currently are. Then again if they valued good soldiers they'd have overthrown Putin by now. This is the system he created, it serves one person himself to one end, enriching himself. Good on these two! At least IF you have to go to god from a fight you know your doing so fighting on the side of what is good and right and not to line the pockets of the same men who would make their own soldiers dig their own graves before being executed.

Damn it takes some balls to get sent to the front line of a war, see that your killing your brothers, get captured, and then go "You know what, my country is wrong, this is all bullshit. Im joining the other side." They of course know that being shipped back to Russia as POWs wouldnt be the best, but out of that bus full of guys only a few raised their hands.
I saw that.
When you’re fighting a war, and you’re willing to take the most egregious criminals with the worst crimes as your soldiers, in the agreement that those criminals get to return to society with a clean record after six months…you’re not fighting for the longevity of your nation. You’re fighting for temporary adrenaline and power grabs. Imagine what Russia will be when all these criminals, with the most heinous crimes, are returned to society. After coming home from a war like this? What about their victims? The families of their victims? What about civilians who will now be at risk of these no doubt reoffenders? It’s just a wild concept. You literally aren’t fighting for the longevity of your country if that’s your choice. He knew while alive, that Russia would never win this.

KYIV, Feb 15 (Reuters) - Ukraine said on Thursday it was withdrawing troops from some parts of the eastern town of Avdiivka to better positions after months of heavy fighting, and battle-hardened reserve fighters from a crack brigade have joined the battle.
Russia is trying to encircle and capture Avdiivka nearly two years after its full-scale invasion of Ukraine and Kyiv's foothold in the town appears increasingly shaky, with its supply lines threatened.
Capturing Avdiivka is key to Russia's aim of securing full control of the two provinces that make up the industrial Donbas region, and could hand President Vladimir Putin a battlefield victory to hold up to voters as he seeks re-election next month.
"In Avdiivka a manoeuvre is underway in some places to withdraw our units to more advantageous positions, in some places to force (the Russians) out of positions," Ukrainian military spokesman Dmytro Lykhoviy said in televised comments.

What could be more meaningless than an interview with a prisoner of war? It is obvious that he will tell you what they want to hear from him.
What a good way to further confuse a situation. Russia and Ukraine aren't as different as chalk and cheese. They have a long history between them. The desire of a Russian to help Ukranians isn't a new idea. There is still a lot of family ties etc across their border
This Propaganda is not working. Just negotiate with Russia.
Two of the smartest Russians. There must be a God!
Surrendering in the middle of battlefield to the ukranians wasn't the smartest
