Replenishment of the exchange fund of the Airborne Assault Forces in Kursk

21 servicemen of the Russian army were taken by paratroopers and allied units in the Kursk region of Russia. The prisoners were provided with timely medical assistance.

"They chose the right path by surrendering to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Instead of participating in senseless meat assaults without proper training and support. We call on all servicemen of the Russian army - do not realize the fantasies of your dictator, surrender."

Good, but I hope they also get the option not to be exchanged, poor chance of survival if they go back. Should stay, but work on communication to the other side.

Russian soldiers are not forced to join the military. They do so to get a lot of money from Putin. If they wanted to be save, then they could have done that. Also Russia murders Ukrainian prisoners of war rather often. So no they will not get the option.

Nah they have forced drafting too. And I'd rather see russian soldiers be tried in court and receive just punishment, than go back to get... whatever they do to each other over there.

The point is to encourage more to surrender, their outlook needs to be better than meat waves, and this info needs to spread behind russian lines. These guys come from a very-low-info world, if the mass-lies collapse, so would the war effort (this happened before).
