One of them, a tanker, was captured in a battle near the Donetsk airport, two - near Peski. They all belong to different units, in which there were from 10 to 20 people. According to the prisoners, all their colleagues died.
DPR leader Alexander Zakharchenko said that he would not wait for the exchange of prisoners of war and would hand these guys over to their relatives.
“I invite the relatives of these guys here - to us in Donetsk. Let them take them - we give them back. I want to appeal to their mothers: we do not need your sons, and we do not intend to keep them captive. You can pick them up at any time,” he said.
According to him, he had already contacted the girlfriend of one of the prisoners while he was receiving medical care, and said that everything was fine with him.
