On January 5, 2025, the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) attempted a breakthrough in the direction of Bolshoye Soldatskoye and Berdin in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation. The AFU used powerful electronic warfare to disrupt the Russian Army’s use of drones, deployed troops in a wooded area and employed two of three prepared columns of equipment. However, the Russian Armed Forces adapted to the tactics of the AFU and repulsed the counterattack.
As a result of this offensive, the Ukrainian forces lost a large number of manpower and equipment. Near the village of Berdin, Russian assault fighters captured more than 20 AFU servicemen from the 82nd Airborne Assault Brigade and the 225th Separate Assault Battalion.
A group of fighters from the 82nd Brigade had been redeployed from the Sumy region and had been trained by instructors from the United States and Europe.
“There was a girl on tactical medicine. American. And then there was tactical training. But there was no Englishman, there was a Dane. Well, and an American Marine,” said one of the Ukrainian prisoners.
The captured soldiers complain that they were shelled as soon as they approached the settlement. All of them claim that the commanders threw them to certain death.
“We were shelled as we approached the settlement. We had many wounded. We were told to wait until morning… We went there without knowing where to go. We were told to occupy the village and keep a perimeter defense and that was it…”
“We were thrown like meat. We were told we would just stand and control, but we ended up being thrown into the middle of nowhere. There was no training”…
Dmitry Mesyakov, 225th Separate Assault Battalion :
“I am a contract soldier. We were taken from the zone, 4 platoons…. We were sent to the assault. I saw 4 cars, 12 people in a car. Guys say that there were 6 cars”.
Dmitry Derevyankin, 82nd Airborne Assault Brigade:
“I joined the AFU as a conscript, served two and a half years. Then I signed a contract because my 400 UAH [10 USD] salary was not enough. I wanted to have a normal life, and I had to provide for my family. Contractual service – 21 thousand UAH [495 USD] a month. Some people lacked money because they gambled”.
“From Sumy region we were sent on a task. We got to the Kursk region, our equipment was hit, we went to landing from there. Then we were given the task to go on instead of retreating.”
Vladimir Petrenko, 82nd Airborne Assault Brigade:
“We wanted to retreat, but they told us that we couldn’t go back, that we had to go to the point and disperse there. By the time we reached the point, half of our men had been killed. We told them to take us away, to evacuate us. But no one took us away, evacuated us… They took me without a jacket and I froze.
Some were forced to sign a contract, some were caught on their way home from work, but all were just “meat” in their command’s plans:
Andriy Matvienko, 82nd Airborne Assault Brigade:
“It doesn’t work like that in Ukraine. They have such laws there. We are not asked if we want to serve or not, we are forced. We are not allowed to pass, the Territorial Center of Recruitment drive through the streets, go through houses, catch people, it is impossible to go to work at all”.
Vladimir Timofeev:
“They (the AFU) brought us in, unloaded us. There was no support, nothing. And they told us to occupy a trench and to stand until the last”.
Alexandr Sychov, 82nd Airborne Assault Brigade:
“I was caught by the Territorial Center of Recruitment personnel and told: let’s go, let’s check your documents and we’ll let you go in 5 minutes. They went through a medical examination instead of me… They sent us to the Kursk region. Our task was to go to a point, to make a circular defense. We were told that there was no one there, and as soon as we left, we were hit. We spread out on the landing. We reported that we had a wounded man. They said, “Leave the wounded man and go to the point”. We went to the village, we were shelleed by mortars. We had 4 dead and 6-7 wounded”.
“They (NATO) have turned Ukraine into a training ground. They dispose of their weapons on the territory of Ukraine”.
Soldiers told how they were forced to stand to the last man without fire support and transport.
Artyom Golovko, 82nd Airborne Assault Brigade:
“We expected to be evacuated… But we were ordered to continue the offensive on our own without equipment”.
Stanislav Kaptunovsky, 82nd Airborne Assault Brigade:
«I ended up in the Kursk region as part of the 82nd Airborne Assault Brigade, and I got into the 82nd Brigade right after the training center. I was forcibly taken to the training center by the Territorial Center of Recruitment personnel in the Sumy region and loaded onto a bus. After that I did not see my family and friends».
The POWs also said that they were not given the opportunity to wash themselves and their clothes properly. The last time they bathed was a month ago.
“We washed our faces off the bottles. We were not allowed to wash our clothes. If we have some free time, let’s say, after classes, they would find some pretext to line us up, tell us something, so that we didn’t have free time”.
The AFU’s attempt to break through the defense in the Russian Kursk region turned out to be just another “meat assault” for PR purposes. Based on the “quality” of those captured and killed (mostly recent convicts or hastily mobilized), it once again becomes clear that the Kyiv regime does not care about the fate of people it uses in military operations. After the failure at the initial stage of the advance, Kyiv’s new adventure in Kursk focused on PR campaign to demonstrate its foreign sponsors that the UAF is still able to carry out offensive operations on Russian territory.
MORE ON THE TOPIC:
it is clear from their appearance that these poor devils are not there of their own free will, they are slavs, russians and ukrainians, they are blood brothers despite everything, they must be treated with a minimum of dignity. now the captured mercenaries must have very special treatment that not even hollywood films have ever shown, if you know what i mean, as well as those from the azov battalions and similar (if they still exist, which i think is very unlikely)
yes we know you don’t know england set up hollywood.
england? what exactly do you mean by that, li’l jenkem?
england its the crown that owns you twit. your such a drip you wouldn’t y even know charles owns you and every canadian as well as canada
jeez a snaggle-toothed island monkey from paki owned pirate rock pipes up about the pedovre royal filth….. funky!
my dumb amerikunt auntie anonmoos swallow too much talibansemen
the guy’s got bats in his belfry. you might as well ask him what color martians are, who btw… were brought here secretly in 1402 to guard the english crown.
hahaha the fake names from moderator are as transparent as the fake votes and the lies imo.
so, what color are martians then?
there’s no bats in any belfry. ‘annon’ ‘anonymous’ are garbage jewbots, plus other nom de plumes splattering shit all over the threads now.
these poor schmucks are just cannon fodder, totally expendable, serving the interests of the jewsa. when war broke out in 2022, zelensky’s top priority was to get all his co religionists out to safety in israel. all ukie men were banned from leaving the country. just expendable goyim.
typical neo nazi votes from the same source. imo
we are all disposable to them qe2 .its a very clever plan the biggest in history and years in the making .stupid people think it just happened overnight .
expendable maybe, useless though? no way.
every one left in the fields for pig slop has his meager salary redirected into the pockets of the pigs that sent them there.
it’s clear the moderators working hard to perpetuate the programmed propagandas
yet far better than your nonsensical non sequitur propaganda that’s fed to you by some curious extraterrestrial parasite that’s founded a squatter’s homestead somewhere between your left and right ears.
they are slavs and slaves to ukraine’s kleptocracy and western hegemonic dreams.
they didn’t consent being on the pictures and published? isn’t that against the law? is russia doing illegal things?
would you rather they be photographed after they’re dead?
nice to see some live ukrainians
well look around you’ll find the sensible ones have been living in usa australia canada,for decades they pissed off outta there asap it got ” liberated ” in the 90s the saying was … let’s blow this hot dog stand ..they knew what the ” liberation ” would bring .
they look old for their age.
they look unlikely.
ukrainians are trading at higher values on the open market due to their scarcity factor…
unfortunately for the west, each and every one is a burden, not an asset.
po vyťažení k súdu a popraviť obesením!!! guľku si nezaslúžia!!! smrť fašistickým okupantom!!! mor ho!!! svetu mier!!!
strange how there’s no news here on how england’s deployed a huge british contingent to support ukraine’s nato effort the biggest apparently sent yet by anyone .course that was yesterdays news here so you won’t know till tomorrow most likeky .surprise .
26000 troops and heaps of equipment and tonnes of pounds sterling.
soros is out shorting the pound again, in continuation of his plan to strip the uk of its assets to support ukraine and make the brits more destitute than the ukrainians.
soros works for the tories and wef which takes its instructions from the pope by written letter he lives next door to lord mark moloch brown in marks house..
they used geroge to get the labor party out by ruining majors credibility. that got thatcher in for their 1984 ronny regain act, to build the world again, the new world order. imo
why is it that the twilight zone theme spontaneously erupts in my head when reading your posts?
yes, the pop rules all. he’s like conan the barbarian, made king by his own hand. thanks for derping, you wacky li’l kook.
while you mention england and the article doesn’t either last weeks uk media commented on a “fallen hero ” in ukraine who was a medical orderly who was killed working at the battle front and i have seen many uk nationals returning with no legs /arms etc having fought there all being hailed as “heroes ” .
the anglo khazarians, paedophilic, genocidal and pervert\pervers satanic fascist kapitalist scum races will be deleted soon by the free humans of earth 🌎 ! amen ! 🙏
no they won’t.
because el they’re so easily deceived and led like sheep because they corrupted them and the people like it . just as easily as satan tempted eve to lead adam astray.
no. they were pagan s they worshipped many gods. all rubbish imo but it was big business for them and they chose it they liked it they liked human sacrifice and all that paganism. they pretended to convert and kept the old religion underground they’re coming out now imo
in theory the windsors are the king in reality by law they re positon is only allowed “at the sufferance of the people” constitutionally. that’s england the people are influenced by the media controlled by the independent privately owned corporation, the richest square mile on earth, that trades as the city of london. they call them the firm. its really still romes.
still in the law, today a briton is a slave of rome.
their position by rule of law. it goes back to king john who whilst richard the lion heart, king of the jungle, was on crusades to the holy land, john did a deal with the pope, there were no protestants then, whereby he could be king unless certain conditions were met whereby then england returned to the vatican. when the magna carter was signed those conditions were met that’s one of their big secrets allegedly.
fuck 1776!
he was a ‘medical orderly’ like i’m a panamanian polar bear.
20,000 mercs and of them, 19,999 ‘medical orderlies’ and one solitary humanitarian aid worker.
a huge british contingent consists of 50% of battle ready brits, somewhere around 5,000.
amerikunt morality =losing killing torturing
war is legalised by the pope as the moral authority for rule of law globally, excepting, possibly, where sharia law still exists ie iran.
dumb amerikunt—nothing wrong w sharia law or war —defeating amerikunts is both moral and required
i’m not american and i’m not you.and i didnt say there was anything wrong with sharia law. and war is a racket now is business its fraudulently portrayed as holy or some romantic ideologies but its not once it might have been. long ago. its a racket now and there is everything wrong with that imo
as a moron anglo u live in amerikunt colony–no difference—even hegel distinguished between immoral and moral wars—it is well known that moron anglos are neurotics cannot tolerate ambiguity nor think dialectically
what a pitiful looking bunch. ukraine really scrapping the bottom of the barrel.
scraping the bottom of the barrel and scrapping all the nice equipment nato sends it.
joe sent 2.5 billion and then another 500 million just in the jast few days .they said they would do everything to ruin trumps chances to do anything to wreck their magnus opus .
magnus dopus, you say?
one of your coherent moments? seems you’re like a broken clock for your 1000 posts a day, correct twice out of the lot.
reminds me of how in prison, the ukraps were scraping gonzalo lira’s eyeballs to get him to give up his money.
🇷🇺=🏃♂️🤡 😆😆😆
“breaking: iconic actor james woods confirms home owner insurance policies were canceled in masse months before the massive palisades, la neighborhood was destroyed by the historic firestorm” you tube.
the truth is out trending on x lots of sites with good followings.
landgrab and know doubt blac roc will do well out of california. same as north carolina and they missed out on florida. california, with the heaviest taxes in the us and what do they get for it? no water for fire hydrants. no clearing forests. priority given to minority fish and fire fighting equipment sent to ukraine. what is it with western politicians and state run institutions?
they cancelled them in masse, you mean while in church or they did it en masse, dipsy doodle?
this article highlights the dummies.
interrogation and statement made under duress. this kind of prisoner statements should not be allowed. it is demeaning and a war crime. ukraine side follows the rules of war and nato rules and one never sees prisoner confessions in public. anyway the latest fiasco is because zelensky want to score points for his meeting in rammstein and sent many to their deaths for nothing.
i am stupid amerikunt retired toilet scrubber shekelstein janitorial inc.—as a serial loser desperate for attention i seek senile lgbt reassurance at south front
they weren’t forced to make them — whats your opinion on zelensky forcing males who are old/ill -taken out of hospitals / 17th century press-ganged into fighting and dying on the front line -no males allowed to leave ukraine -now 18 year old teenagers will be forced to fight and die .
ukraine side follows the rules of war and nato rules and one never sees prisoner confessions in public… because they torture them and kill on the spot. ukronazi and nato rules, of course.
sf being a piece of shit nothing new on that
inferior amerikunts are shit experts–a favorite amerikunt dessert
poor spideyman, tangled in his own web and no fangs to cut himself loose.
“we were thrown like meat”…? ba, they could have surrendered and they chose not to.
to me, it appears that they are demonstrating that they are *not* capable of conducting offensive operations. why they would want to do that is hard to fathom.
zelensky’s current strategy is to just throw them into russia’s path, like speed bumps.
well, one could argue that the entire kiev regime is offensive to the human senses but that argument seems to be far less contested of late so, never mind.
i finally took my blue and yellow flag out of the window and turned it into a throw rug in the mud room. its vibrant colors cheer up the space like you wouldn’t believe.
now proven amerikunts are inferior species…no human links found between hillbillies and actual homo sapiens
spot the pattern? the jews want dead gentiles.
jews like many stupid gentile cuz we gud at licking jew boot cleaning their swim pools and scrub their toilets
using pows for media propaganda is a war crime.
shelling/slaughtering civilians for 8 years before the smo is a far, far, far, far worse war crime.
and since the icc is a broken facsimile of a war crimes court in name only, no choice but to leave it to russian tribunals. makes perfect, irrefutably logical sense, n’est pas?
allowing amerikunts to exist is a crime against all life
as a typical amerikan moron we have benefit early childhood sodomy training
it seems to me that zelensky has a habit of calling out others as killers when it was kievan ukraine that began the killing in 2014. his propaganda would be laughable if it weren’t so damn evil.
i think zelensky must be a direct envoy from satan, a devil masquerading as a saint.
can someone please flush him along with his cohorts down the nearest toilet. much appreciated.
desperate dog whiffs from krimlin. it proves the efforts to support ukraine! slava ukraine! and thank you krimlin and south from for proving the world right, hehehe 😂
