They gave him food and called his mother.. A Russian soldier breaks down in tears because of the sympathy of the Ukrainians after his capture (video)

A video clip documented, a captured Russian soldier crying after the Ukrainians gave him food and tea and called his mother to tell her that he was fine.

The video shows the soldier after he apparently surrendered, surrounded by several people and cars, sipping tea and feeding on pastries while a woman holds a mobile phone in a video call with his mother, according to Al-Marsad newspaper.

"Compare the empathy here with Putin's brutality," said BuzzFeed reporter Christopher Miller, who shared the viral video on Twitter.

Someone off camera can be heard saying in Ukrainian that the soldiers "don't know why they are here," according to The US Sun.

According to the newspaper, the man says in Ukrainian: "These guys, it's not their fault."

Remarkable video circulating on Telegram.
