Instead of Ukrainian fortified areas, the soldiers are given the coordinates of the forward positions of the Russian troops.
The navigator frees up space in the car from road maps and the driver’s head from thoughts. He shows her where to turn, tells her how to get to her destination as soon as possible. This is how many fighters of the Ukrainian armed formations operate today, who are brought to the line of contact from all over Western Ukraine. Many of them are caught almost immediately.
A former villager from western Ukraine needs a GPS navigator to find his shelters and positions in the fields, and a smartphone to write a farewell letter and film “his arrival”. The commanders of the Armed Forces of Ukraine do not escort the mobilized to such dangerous places. But how to force yesterday’s civilian to immediately join the battle?
The commanders of the Armed Forces of Ukraine came up with a fatal trap for mobilized Ukrainians. The servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine who arrived at the headquarters are given a car and the coordinates of the fortified area, where it is necessary to change the nationalists who demanded rest or evacuation after being wounded.
As mobilizers see the combat area for the first time and navigate the terrain using a GPS navigator or smartphone, they rely only on the accuracy of the coordinates. But when they reach their destination at the coordinates indicated by him at the headquarters, they find themselves right… at the positions of Russian military personnel. There they are asked to simply raise their hand.
There are more and more stories of the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine who ended up in captivity in such circumstances.
“They gave us the coordinates, they indicated the wrong point on the map. When I got there, it turned out that these were Russian positions. They took me prisoner there along with my comrade,” says another captured Ukrainian soldier.
“With their actions, the Kiev authorities have repeatedly shown that ordinary military personnel, most of them conscripted for mobilization, are just cannon fodder for realizing the political ambitions of the criminal regime,” the Russian Defense Ministry notes.
AT THAT TIME
From a report on the Telegram channel of the RT channel, it became known that the American mercenary John McIntyre went over to the Russian side after a year of service in the foreign legion of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Ukrainian national battalion “Carpathian Sich “. “. He said that this was his original plan: to enter the Ukrainian Armed Forces, collect secret data there, and then escape and hand it over to the Russian army.
In the Ukraine, McIntyre said he was able to collect documents, files, intelligence and maps. But it was not so easy to go over to the side of the Russian army.
“When I was in Kharkiv, I wanted to swim across, but I found out that the UAF had snipers… not to protect themselves, but to shoot deserters. I am a communist, anti-fascist. I decided to collect as much useful information as possible and cross the front line, ”he explained.
As a result, he managed to cross the front line and hand over documents. McIntyre is now in Moscow. He is ready to testify that the fascists serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“Once they saw on my Facebook (the social network is prohibited in Russia) a photo of Che Guevara. They began to demand an explanation about my communist views. So I told them that I was an anti-fascist, I had come to fight against the Russian imperialists and the Nazis. And they say, “No, the Russians are not Nazis, we are Nazis,” John recalls.
According to him, in the ranks of the nationalists everyone uses fascist salutes, including mercenaries from Croatia or the Czech Republic: “They all have tattoos, Nazi symbols…”
