Ukraine has paraded captured Russian soldiers in dozens of online videos as Moscow finally admitted its forces have sustained heavy losses after pictures showing bodies of Kremlin fighters emerged.

Footage posted online show tied up 'demoralised and exhausted' Russian prisoners of war captured after they failed to break through Ukrainian defences in Kyiv and Kharkiv over the weekend.

Several of the videos were posted on a Telegram channel set up on Saturday by Ukraine's Interior Ministry called 'Find Your Own'.

Many Russian troops claimed that they believed they were conducting training exercises in the border regions and did not know they were being sent to invade Ukraine.

Your Americentric focus is way too tight.

Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Israel have their hands tied behind their backs with European pacifist twine.

I was hoping the Ukrainian underdogs would beat Russia back until that scumbag Soros opened his mouth in support of Ukraine. That changed my opinion to mostly neutral. I can’t support anything that Soros supports.

Daily Mail is a hugely NATO/Euro source. Extremely Hoax News.

And I like the DM. But it is absolutely not to be trusted on this. Already exposed the Hoax “Ghost” pilot story, the AKs that were cardboard, the use of “war” pics from years ago for Zalensky, and others. Really, really unreliable.

“My favorite story of captured Russians.”

You should be aware that’s very likely all things such as this are; stories. War fictions designed to bolster one sides’ feelings and discourage the other side. (i.e. propaganda attempts)
They can be funny and even inspiring, if not factual. But, then again, it’s the narrative that matters with such items.

Not a photoshop. KGB Putin is immunocompromised as hell by his spinal cancer treatments and he knows his days are numbered.

Both of these Generals would like to kill Putin... Sadly and as always... He’s out of shiv distance.

Paranoia will destroy you, and it’s not too difficult to see that Putin is ‘very’ paranoid.

Maybe, but if you look at the pictures of the Russian prisoners, you will see they are handcuffed.

USA told them to invade, in a small way.

I think it’s so funny how the KGB Putin fan bois are whining that the Kremlin isn’t winning the propaganda wars.

I figure that the parliament passed the recognition of Ukrainian alleged breakaways as instructed. There is one member pitching a fit, but it doesn’t look like impeachment is going to happen. His inner circle looks scared. There is the weird thing about him staying 20 feet away from other people, is that due to mental or physical health? Some journalist said he was a very lonely man, is that due to paranoia setting in? He still has enough people to arrest all those protestors, but Putin has annoyed a lot of people all over the world in various war zones. Maybe some group of freedom fighters/terrorists will take advantage of the chaos to sneak in snd get the job done. If Anonymous is good to their word, they will get the goods on him and publish it. That would change the world!

My thought is that some old enemy will take advantage of the chaos to kill him. I don’t know where that would leave us with the Russian nuke codes.

That’s true. The grunt always takes the brunt. The prisoners who are speaking out better hope Ukraine wins and they can seek asylum. I shudder to think of the revenge might be taken on these soldiers when they get home

“Ukraine’s focus needs to be killing and humiliating the Russians so they will leave their country.”

If Ukraine could do this on their own, fine. But they can’t. They require outside influences to achieve this.

The vast majority on this board would like to see Ukraine kick Russia’s @ss. If there are even a few of us (including myself), that think that this is a bad look, then think how it could influence people who are on the fence.

Putin has spent a lifetime acquiring enemies.

They wouldn’t be “paraded” if they’d stayed in their own fn country, comrade!

Those were love videos for their family back home!

The Putin apologists on FR are either Russian troll farmers or Soviet stooges. Pathetic.
