Since the beginning of the Ukrainian Defense Forces’ operation in the Kursk region, many Russian soldiers have been captured. The rapid advance deep into the territory of the aggressor country led to the disorganization of the Russian army units. Ukrainian troops have been posting videos and photos of Russian prisoners of war (POWs) on social media, with the Balu HUB Telegram channel and volunteer Serhiy Sternenko being among the sources.

On the first day of the Ukrainian army’s offensive, several dozen Russian servicemen surrendered at the Sudzha checkpoint on the border between Ukraine and Russia in the Kursk region. The military reported the number to be around 50, while Russian propagandists tried to deny this. However, videos of the Russians surrendering were published on Ukrainian Telegram channels, including DeepState.
