️Captured Ukrainian serviceman Yevgeny Khotenko speaks about how AFU recruits are trained to fire ATGMs without rockets The POW served as an ATGM operator. His unit was supposed to deploy Milan ATGMs made by France and Germany, but there wasn’t any rockets for them, that’s why the recruits were demonstrated how to fire them. He said that his unit, where Khotenko spent some time in the rear, wasn’t ready for combat as it was manned by old servicemen. Yevgeny Khotenko was taken prisoner in Kursk region, where he got unknowingly, as commanders promised to sent him and his comrades to Sumy region. ’I still don’t understand why our people crossed the border and went to Kursk region. You have to run away from there by any possible means. You have to surrender or just drop your weapons. You don’t have to fight here. We are not on our own land. They won’t forgive us for this,’ he said. Russian Defence Ministry Source: MoD Russia
