Snipers ensure advance of assault detachment in Avdeyevka direction
The servicemen stealthily eliminated the observers and the enemy's machine gun crew supporting offensive of advance units of the Tsentr Group of Forces.
'As snipers, we cover the infantry. Over the radio we heard that the infantry stumbled upon the enemy, and they can't go through this forest to the next, because a machine gunner works there. And at that time we spotted this machine gunner and quickly eliminated him. The infantry moved on to the next forest belt,' says platoon leader of sniper company with the call sign 'Mazhor'.

Ukrainian POW Romayev: AFU command promises convicts to give Belgorod for their disposal
'Representatives of the 57th Motorised Infantry Brigade came to draft us. They gathered 49 people in the headquarters. They said that we had to serve the Motherland in some way. We underwent a medical examination in a particular way. They just said that I was suitable. They just needed people like us, like meatshields or something like that. Nobody wants to fight. Everyone just goes out of the prison only not to do time, and if possible, runs away somewhere,' Dmitry Romayev describes how he got enlisted,
Those, who were chosen among convicts, were taken to the training ground in Chuguyev district of Kharkov region.
'We were told that, in general, we would capture Volchansk. Then we would go to Belgorod, to the peaceful cities, in that direction. There we would be allowed, in short, to do whatever we want. Rob, rape, steal, in short, engage in lawlessness, as they say,' says Romayev about promises of the AFU command.
The convicts along with the mobilised people were thrown as a cannon fodder to take fire and flush out the firing points of Russian troops in Volchansk. The AFU militants stayed in a shelter until they heard 'come out with your hand up'.
The POW asks Ukrainian servicemen to stop resisting.
'Don't go to this war! There is only grief here. Your mothers and wives will suffer. You will be left behind without arms and legs somewhere here at best. At worst, you will rot somewhere here in the ground. Surrender, yes, it will be the best outcome. You will be at least unharmed.'
