POW: 🏳️ He was on his way home, but found himself at the frontline

10.07.24 Vyacheslav Zadorin, a 38-year-old serviceman of the AFU 57th Separate Motorised Infantry Brigade, was forcibly mobilised by enlistment office employees when he was returning home after his shift.
-
According to the POW's words, they had only six training sessions at the firing range. After accelerated training, Zadorin was sent to the Kharkov direction among other similarly mobilised men.
-
During another intensive artillery preparation of the Russian Armed Forces, he and other mobilised men took refuge in a dugout to escape from artillery, drones and mortars. A few minutes later, Russian attack aircraft, which had surrounded the dugout, offered the Ukrainian soldiers to surrender. The AFU soldiers made the only right decision - to surrender as prisoners.
