Ukraine has adopted a decision to launch an additional place of detention for Russian prisoners of war.
As stated by Andrii Yusov, Russia is suffering heavy losses in the Kharkiv direction. The Main Directorate of Intelligence appeals to the Russian troops who are currently there to surrender.
He noted that Ukraine guarantees compliance with the Geneva Convention, international humanitarian law, guarantees the life and safety of those Russian servicemen who do not want to become cannon fodder or war criminals.
Yusov added that taking into account the Russian losses in this direction, surrendering or switching to the side of Ukraine is a reasonable alternative.
‘Taking into account the scale of the situation in which the Russian troops are, their losses, including future ones, it was decided to open an additional place of detention, an additional camp for Russian prisoners of war,’ the representative said.

Rinat Akhmetov’s Metinvest Group has completed the construction of an upgraded underground NATO Role 2 hospital in one of the hottest sectors of the frontline. This is the second stabilization point established under the Steel Front initiative in cooperation with the Medical Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The new facility, funded by Metinvest with an investment of UAH 21 million, is more secure than the first one thanks to its deeper location underground (over 6 meters) and additional fortifications.
Five armored vehicles “Kozak” have received a new mission – thanks to the support of Metinvest, they have been upgraded to full-fledged command and staff vehicles. These upgraded vehicles are now operating on the front line.
A kamikaze drone flies directly toward an armored personnel carrier. But instead of penetrating the hull, it explodes on a steel screen. The crew survives.
