| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] A captured soldier of the Ukrainian Armed Forces told how she was rescued by the Russian military near Krynki. A video recording of the conversation with her was published by the Khersonsky Vestnik Telegram channel. According to the prisoner, her husband had previously gone missing at the front, after which she was left alone with three children. However, the Ukrainian authorities refused to pay compensation for the loss of a breadwinner, which is why she was forced to join the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. After completing training in Nikolaev, her unit was deployed several times in different directions. As a result, she ended up in Krynki on the left bank of the Dnieper, where she was wounded as a result of Russian artillery strikes on the positions of her unit. “I started to switch off, requested evacuation, but they refused. I saw a drone flying and started waving at it. Then the military came up with your tricolor, provided me with medical assistance and took me with them,” she said. As reported by IA Regnum, on February 7, the Telegram channel TrackANaziMerc reported that on December 3, 2023, during the battles near Krynki in the Kherson region, the Russian military eliminated the American mercenary James Bowersox, who fought on the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. According to the source, the mercenary arrived in Ukraine in September, after which he was enrolled in the 505th battalion of the 37th Marine Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Prior to this, the governor of the Kherson region, Vladimir Saldo, said that a Polish mercenary who fought in the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and was captured near Krynki decided to go over to the side of Russia and called on the residents of Poland to oppose the current government, which turns a blind eye to the crimes of the Kiev regime. The Russian Ministry of Defense has not yet confirmed the information about the Polish mercenary who defected to the side of the Russian Armed Forces. |
