On the night of February 24, 2022, Vladimir Putin appeared on national television, declaring the commencement of a "military special operation." Its purported objective was to safeguard the residents of Donbas from an alleged "genocide" and to ensure the "demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine." Such claims, however, are false propaganda aimed at validating a full-scale incursion into an autonomous nation.
During the early hours, the Russian army initiated an attack on military infrastructure spread across Ukraine. Putin's plan, devised by the Kremlin leader, sought to swiftly capture key cities, including Kyiv, and to instate a puppet government.
Vladimir Putin's assumptions couldn't be more erroneous. This miscalculation arose as Ukrainians demonstrated their resolve and readiness to battle for their sovereignty. Consequently, Russia's invasion of Ukraine is now close to entering its second year.
Russian Soldiers Filed Complaints about Being Handcuffed to Stair Railings
Almost immediately, Anton Gerashchenko, an advisor to the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs, posted updates about the war online. Recently, he shared a video filmed by one of Putin's soldiers.
The video reveals two Russian soldiers confined to a stairwell. The unusual thing? The soldiers are handcuffed to the railings, and next to them are bottles functioning as their toilets.
According to the Ukrainian advisor, the soldiers were kept in these conditions for several days.
Military personnel from Unit No. 41680 revealed that they had been assaulted by their commanders and after filing a complaint, were kept handcuffed for several days. Subsequently, one of them was deployed to the front line, while the other soldier mysteriously disappeared - Anton Gerashchenko disclosed on the X service (previously Twitter).
