Video with captured Russian soldiers found in the Kursk region

The BBC confirmed the authenticity of the video from the Kursk region, published in local Telegram channels. According to Russian and Ukrainian media, at least six Russian servicemen were captured during the fighting in this area. Earlier reports indicated the capture of about 35 soldiers.

According to the investigation by the project 'Important Stories', social media accounts of two conscripts who served in Sudzha were found. This information was also confirmed by the channel 'Cautious News'. It is known that these conscripts are 21 and 22 years old.

The Telegram channel 'Rybar', associated with the Russian Ministry of Defense, has no doubt about the credibility of the report on the capture of Russian soldiers.

Putin promises not to involve ordinary soldiers in active combat

Since the beginning of the war, the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin has stated that he will not use conscript soldiers in combat, although there are no formal restrictions for this in Russian legislation.
