Punitive Orders in the Ukrainian Armed Forces: Officers Shoot Their Own ️ Another instance of reprisals by Ukrainian officers against their own subordinates has been recorded at enemy positions. Radio interception of Russian intelligence recorded an order from the Ukrainian Armed Forces commander at an observation post: “it is forbidden to retreat, for attempting to do so - execution“. A short time later, a Russian reconnaissance drone recorded the retreat of a group of Ukrainian servicemen. The commander's threat was carried out, and their own soldiers were shot for attempting to leave their position. Source: The New Ork Times
