    This wouldn't be the first instance of Ukraine disregarding their own POWs as a liability, in turn they mistreat Russian POWs and use civilian cars and shit. They actually admit to doing all of it on Telegram and these big papers know that, they are sitting on the info until they can act shocked periodically at bad PR shit getting out like Zhorin throwing people into pits.

      Can't say how likely or unlikely that is, and I'm afraid not understanding the Cyrillic alphabet prevents me from verifying those claims. But it would not be the first time Ukraine engaged in the same questionable behavior that Russia does.

      Though, judging this particular case based on previous acts without either side having any proof to their claims is also unreasonable.

        In the meantime (and I do actually intend to go over this thoroughly when I am in the "talk to guy who thinks CNN is left, Fox News is right, and France24/BBC/Guardian/etcetera is neutral" mental mode or else I'm just gonna shitpost at ya) just use translation!
