Fighters of the 3rd Operational Brigade “Spartan” named after Colonel Petro Bolbochan of the National Guard captured another group of prisoners near Pokrovsk.

The video of the conversation with the Russians was published on March 3 on the brigade’s channel.

“Spartan” continues replenishing the exchange fund while performing missions in the Pokrovsk direction. This time they captured four Russians.

When asked why they went to fight, the answers were similar: to earn money, to get early release from prison.

Two former convicts said their commanders ordered them to reach a point and wait for instructions — and then abandoned them.

The occupiers barely survived, frostbit their feet, but later were “warmed” by Spartan’s drones, which used loudspeakers to offer them a chance to surrender.

Another prisoner said his comrades were “mowed down like grass”. He hid, and later chose the chance to stay alive.
