2,000 Russian soldiers have now called Ukrainian ‘surrender hotline’
The Metro says Russian soldiers are said to be calling a ‘surrender hotline’ in their droves since Vladimir Putin’s announcement of partial mobilisation.
Andriy Yusov, a spokesman for Ukraine’s military intelligence, said some 2,000 people had called the ‘I Want To Live’ hotline in recent weeks.
He told the Ukrainska Pravda newspaper: ‘The hotline has received a lot of calls from Russians who were called up recently, and even from some who haven’t even been called up yet.
‘They’re calling and asking, “What should I do if I get called up? What do I have to do, what’s the right way to surrender?”‘.
