Over 2,000 in a few weeks: Russian soldiers surrender en masse - Ukraine's Main Directorate of Intelligence, Ministry of Defence

The Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine reports.

"After the successful Ukrainian offensive in the Kharkiv region, there was a surge of applications for the "I want to live" project. Also, of course, after the announcement of the so-called partial mobilization, not only soldiers who are in Ukraine, but also those called up in the territory of Russia and their relatives began to call, as well as residents of the temporarily occupied Crimea. In a few weeks, we already have more than 2,000 such appeals," Andriy Yusov, representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence, said.

Thanks to the "I want to live" project, Russians can avoid going to the front line, and if the soldier is already mobilized, then stay alive.

Yusov emphasized that 100,000 people have already been mobilized in Russia and are being sent to hot spots, to the front.
