I would scan that if I were you. I am sure great things will happen in your life if you do. “Hey, this phone number belongs to me a Russian soldier and here are my coordinates. BTW my unit is the 17th Tank battalion and we are short of fuel and ammo. Please send artillery rounds”

—> Pictures of the cards supposedly being distributed widely among Russian forces by Ukraine were shared on social media.

More fabricated pablum, gladly gummed by a Zeeper…

Looks like good psyops.

We did lots of similar things in WWII, also in Vietnam.

Sometimes they work well.

It is always difficult to measure the effects.

So Ukrainians are supposedly living in bunkers and in fear for their lives, but they’re coming out to hand these cards to the Russian soldiers who are terrorizing and oppressing them by their presence? Boy, I need my hip waders for all the stories the Ukrainian PR department is cranking out lately! 🤣

In Vietnam the US forces distributed slips of paper with similar information to induce the Viet Cong to surrender to the South Vietnamese forces. The slips were nicknamed ‘yellow cows’ because of the South Vietnamese flag colors used on the paper.

One country sending leaflets to their enemy's soldiers telling them how to surrender? Why hasn't anyone done that before? < /s>

What's next? LED lit drones spelling out "Surrender, Dorothy" across the sky?

Someone posted a picture on the Internet so it must be true.

QR code from the left - looks like standard instructions on how to surrender
 
 
 
QR code from the right side of the card - pulls up some sort of social media site. Maybe for a chat with the Ukies. Lots of "subscribers" noted.

The US did the same thing in Iraq. Twice.
https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-air-dropped-psyops-leaflet-encouraging-iraqi-forces-to-surrender-to-140078928.html

"Air dropped Psyops Leaflet encouraging Iraqi forces to surrender to Coalition forces during the Gulf War of 1990-1991."

Allied surrender Leaflets had their effect in both Gulf Wars, especially the first. There are parallels to the Karkhiv counteroffensive. Months of bombardment through HIMARs, degraded enemy in every way, ineffective leadership, distrust of the leadership, and a successful counter attack. Getting a surrender card with QR code would really good to Russians around the Oskil river last week.
