MOSCOW, January 30. /TASS/. A Ukrainian captive from the rifle battalion of the 156th separate motorized infantry brigade told TASS that he feared a Ukrainian drone attack to target him the most when he volunteered to surrender.

"My strongest fear was that our drone operators would kill me. This was the thing I feared the most," Alexander Radchenko shared.

He recounted why he had chosen to surrender to Russian troops. "I don’t want to fight, I want to live. My family is waiting for me at home," Radchenko explained.

He commended the humane attitude to him from the Russian military as he also advised his fellow soldiers to lay down arms or defect to the Russian side.
