The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) has shared a video showing the interrogation of Ukrainian PoWs who served in the Kharkov region.
The soldiers in the video voluntarily surrendered to the Russian Army and shared that they joined the armed forces as part of the forced draft without proper combat training.
Commenting on the deplorable state of the Kharkov defensive lines, one of the men said that they "just don’t exist".
“The conditions were subpar, there were no firing points, there were no shelters, there was nothing,” he revealed.
