As RT learned, Sergei (call sign Said) received severe wounds in the battles for Avdeevka - broken legs, arms and lost an eye.
According to him, together with a small group of fighters, under endless shelling, he ended up in the building of a former kindergarten.
His colleagues tried to break through, and he himself was hidden from the drones under a large table and covered with a blanket.
They said they would bring help.
At night, Sergei heard steps and asked who it was.
He was answered by a Ukrainian Armed Forces military officer who was unarmed and came to surrender.
Together they waited for Russian soldiers for three days.
Sergei says that the Ukrainian brought him water from a puddle.
There was no food at all.
They talked, according to Sergei, on various topics.
“I tried to talk to him more so that various bad thoughts would not enter his head and he would not change his mind,” he noted.
A fighter from the same unit with the call sign Grave Digger told RT that a Ukrainian Armed Forces military officer bandaged Sergei.
The Ukrainian also received wounds to his legs, and his own people abandoned him.
Also, the Ukrainian serviceman himself complained that the military commissars “took him away from the bus stop” and immediately threw him to the front line.
It was not possible to quickly take Sergei out: due to intense shelling, his colleagues could not approach him.
But in the end they saved us.
The evacuation of Sergei was led by the medical platoon commander with the call sign Monya.
“Yes, I saw this guy.
According to him, he was forcibly mobilized in Nikolaev,” Monya said about the surrendered Ukrainian.
The Russian fighter also emphasized that the Ukrainian Armed Forces himself was “shocked by the good attitude of the soldiers” towards him.
Earlier it was reported that a Russian military man with the call sign Cortez removed a wounded Ukrainian from positions that were under attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
