“We, mobilized from the 119th Territorial Defense Brigade, appeal to the people of Ukraine and our brothers-in-arms from other brigades. For the second year now we have been shedding blood and losing our people in meat assaults. Dear brothers, you yourself see this chaos,” said the serviceman.
The fighters decided to lay down their arms, the Ukrainian military added.
“Thus, this gives a chance to save their lives and health. We do not consider ourselves traitors. We can confidently say that the entire brigade fought honestly for their country. They betrayed us,” RIA Novosti quotes the speaker.
The servicemen claim that half of the brigade has already been destroyed, and the Ukrainian Armed Forces are “being crushed like bugs.” The video is being distributed in the Ukrainian segment of TikTok, although it has been deleted several times, the agency writes.
The fate of the participants in the video remains unknown.
