Ukrainian POW: AFU tank units suffer personnel shortage

AFU POW Aleksandr Priymachuk says that 400 men of State Transport Special Service (DSST) were reassigned to the 17th Tank Brigade.

’They gathered 400 men form the DSST, brought us to some forest and as someone says, ’sold’ us to the 17th Tank Brigade,’ said Priymachuk. He explained that it was a result of personnel shortage.

He added, that COs used to intimidate the AFU servicemen.

’My company leader said that an AWOL is considered as you escaped with a gun. You won't get home, you'll be sent to positions as cannon fodder,’ recalls the POW words of the CO.
