| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. Chechens are fanatics, whether uniformed or not. [Regnum] The fighters of the Akhmat special forces unit committed a shameful act by voluntarily surrendering to Ukrainian troops, and their right to life after captivity is questionable.
Alaudinov commented on videos of captured Chechen fighters, in which they ask their relatives to contact the command so that they could be exchanged in the future. According to the general, these words made him furious, since voluntary captivity has always been an unforgivable shame for a Chechen, which can only be washed away with blood and personal sacrifice. “Those of you who voluntarily surrendered into captivity, how great must be your delusion when you think that I would intercede, ask, or do anything to get you out of this captivity,” Alaudinov said. He demanded that those who "surrendered like girls" no longer try to contact him and advised the Ukrainian side to keep them. Alaudinov added that he did not consider such fighters worthy of life and did not understand how they were going to live after captivity. According to the general, there are different ways to end up in captivity: by voluntarily laying down arms or by being taken prisoner by the enemy after being seriously wounded or concussed. Those who were captured wounded, he emphasized, are rescued by the Akhmat special forces "by any means necessary." "THEY FIGHT LIKE LIONS" On August 12, Alaudinov said that the Ukrainian side was spreading false reports about fighters from the Akhmat special forces and the Aida unit allegedly surrendering in the Kursk region. He emphasized that the fighters were “fighting like lions” and that none of them had surrendered. The next day, the general reported that after an unequal battle, the enemy had captured five fighters from the Akhmat-Chechnya detachment: three riflemen and two signalmen. He added that no one from Akhmat itself had been captured, and asked that rumors about the alleged "mass surrender" of fighters be told to "the old ladies on the farm." EXCHANGE OF PRISONERs On September 14, Russia and Ukraine held a prisoner exchange in the "103 for 103" format with the mediation of the UAE. The UAE Foreign Ministry expressed gratitude to both sides for their cooperation and specified that this was the eighth prisoner exchange since the beginning of the year with the mediation of Abu Dhabi. It was noted that a total of 1,994 prisoners were released. The Russian servicemen transferred by the Ukrainian side, previously captured in the Kursk region, have arrived in Belarus. They will be delivered to their homeland, where they will undergo treatment and rehabilitation in hospitals. Earlier, on August 24, Russia returned 115 servicemen from Ukrainian captivity, including conscripts who were captured in the border areas of the Kursk region. In exchange, 115 prisoners of war of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) were handed over to the Ukrainian side.
