According to him, he went to serve in the army to avoid prison time: to buy drugs, he stole and sold asphalt.

He said that two weeks after the call, he ended up in a training center where he was supposed to take a course for a young fighter.

“There was no proper preparation, they went and did nothing.

There I also used drugs, there was enough money, ”RIA Novosti quotes him.

He added that for a bribe in the form of a bottle of strong alcohol, the commanders turned a blind eye to everything.

After the course of the young fighter, Panayotov and his colleagues ended up in positions near Mariupol.

“In the positions they ordered “bookmarks” for themselves, they used them.

The commander knew about this and did not tell us anything, ”said the prisoner.

Earlier, a captured soldier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Volodymyr Masyuk said that the military of the Armed Forces of Ukraine actively use drugs at the front.
