Down with serfdom: Gnezdilov went AWOL from APU before the announcement of demobilization

A soldier of the 56th brigade, Sergei Gnezdilov, voluntarily leaves the unit before the Ukrainian authorities establish clear terms of service in the Armed Forces. This was stated by the "impeccable soldier" on the Facebook social network❶.

"From today I'm going to SOCH (unauthorized abandonment of the part. — EADaily) before the establishment of clear terms of service or before his 25th birthday, having five years of impeccable military service behind him," Gnezdilov wrote, quoted by Strana.

He demanded that the authorities introduce demobilization for those who have been in the army for a long time.

"Without a term of service, without a clear right to demobilization, returning to the peaceful rear and listening to society, a volunteer begins to understand that serfdom has not been abolished, but he was appointed guilty and responsible," the Ukrainian serviceman continued.

He said that in the Armed Forces of Ukraine "migration to the rear begins, to relative safety," and evasion from mobilization has taken on such a huge scale because there are no clear terms of service.

Gnezdilov does not understand why the soldiers on the front line are not changed when there are "5 million conscripts" in the country.

As reported by EADaily, the number of those who voluntarily left the unit and deserters in the troops of the Kiev regime today reaches about 200 thousand. This was stated by journalist Vladimir Boyko, serving in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

So he commented on the statement of the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Ruslan Gorbenko that in APU 80 thousand arbitrarily left the unit. Boyko stressed that this is only the number of open criminal cases, but in reality there are about 200 thousand deserters.
