Translated from source:

The Russians were kicked out and the exchange fund was replenished. Work of the 3rd company of the 2nd mechanized battalion🇺🇦 3 OShBr in the direction of Bakhmut. Assault positions and close combat.

Losses on the part of the Russians are 12 - 200, 2 - 300. And three more - for exchange. There could have been more prisoners, but only three accepted the offer to surrender and save their lives.

    Thats what I was thinking. Situations like this would definitely turn me into a war criminal.

        no it’s not…if you have the chance to take them down without force or violence you have to do it. That is what differs us from the russians.

            depends. As you see in the video thei got them after all, so no reason to execute them because they are POWs then.

              But that’s not the case here? Orc rolled a grenade out after saying he was surrendering. Pretty sure they don’t have to treat him as surrendering at that point, no?

                well in the end he did surrender, so he is still a POW and should be treated like one. And before you downvote me again, I dont condone the grenade throw…I just imply to treat a POW like a POW if are able to catch him, even if he acted like a cunt.
