National Guardsmen Capture Three Russian Occupiers

This was reported on Facebook by the Eastern Operational Territorial Unit of the National Guard.

The two captured invaders turned out to be residents of the Tomsk region of the Russian Federation. For about six months, they have been fighting as part of the so-called 15th International Brigade, known as "Pyatnashka".

One of the prisoners has been in prison five times. Another claims he signed the contract to avoid criminal punishment.

According to the prisoners, they were wounded while on a mission and hid in forest belts and settlements because they were threatened with being "reset" if they returned. They ate compound feed and what they found after the Ukrainian military.

The third prisoner is a resident of the Samara region who joined the Russian army in January of this year. He claims that he joined the army to avoid punishment for non-payment of alimony. After two weeks of training, he went to fight in Ukraine and was almost immediately captured.
