The Ukrainian Airborne Assault Forces reported the information.

Among the Russian prisoners, most are marines and paratroopers, with one being a motorized rifleman.

Additionally, one soldier claimed to be from the so-called Transnistria, and another from the village of Mykhailivka in the Zaporizhzhia region. One of the soldiers was born in 2006.

The Airborne Assault Forces command stated that the prisoners received timely medical care.

"They made the right choice by surrendering to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Instead of participating in pointless, poorly supported assaults. We urge all Russian soldiers — don't follow the fantasies of your dictator, surrender," emphasized the Ukrainian military.
