Volunteer Marina Ashifina, who spoke with a TASS correspondent, confirmed that the captured soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine massively refuse to exchange and remain on Russian territory. The source also confirmed that such a decision is supported by the relatives of the captured Ukrainians.
At the same time, many continue to receive benefits from the authorities of their country.
The Russian authorities, Ashifina said, readily satisfy such requests of former prisoners of war. And there are more and more such people.
"We will not make public the names and data of those who left the places of detention," the informed volunteer added.
EADaily reminds that on In Ukraine, people were very outraged that the Ukrainian Armed Forces threw the bodies of dead soldiers into the Yasinovo tract in the Kursk region.
