POW says that the command refused to evacuate his units leaving Ukrainian servicemen to die ’We were sent there, we spent 10 days in a dugout, we couldn’t even raise our head, drones hovered over us and dropped munitions. I asked the command over the radio to evacuate us, we were wounded. They asked us to stay there a little longer,’ he said. As the POW said, he and his comrades were sent like meatshields, that’s why they surrendered to Russian troops, when the opportunity presented itself. Russian Defence Ministry Source: MoD Russia
