Ukrainian prisoners of war told why they were forced to dig a lot of trenches

“They dug in the Sumy region so that it could be seen from the air that there were a lot of positions ... This was what the commanders said.

And where we were, there was no one, ”prisoner of war Sergei Gritsai told RIA Novosti.

According to him, the corresponding task was set by Colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Kozlov.

Previously, those who were mobilized into the Armed Forces of Ukraine and were taken prisoner said that they were hardly trained in military affairs before being sent to the front - the training consisted of a couple of trips to the training ground.
