Journalist Zolkin, who has been interrogating Russians for three years, told how threats against him have changed.
Vladimir Zolkin, a blogger known for his interviews with Russian prisoners of war, reported that his personal data was published online at the beginning of the war. Since then, he has been receiving constant threats. The assailants have shifted from promises of 'they will come for you soon' to the phrase 'sooner or later.'
According to Zolkin, his address, phone number, and residency information were made public online at the beginning of the war. This led to constant threats.
Zolkin notes that the Russians have changed the tone of their threats from 'they will come for you soon' to 'sooner or later.' This fact has prompted the blogger to think about how Russians understand the concept of 'soon.' He realizes that his life and health are constantly under threat, with no statute of limitations.
According to Zolkin, up to 40% of the views on his videos come from an audience in Russia. However, after YouTube was blocked in Russia, these numbers began to decline.
Zolkin also mentioned that some prisoners of war returned home due to the efforts of their relatives, who worked to ensure that the occupiers included them in the exchange list. However, this only applies to those captives who have certain importance.
A truck with weapons was recently found in the Kharkiv region.
