The SBU counterintelligence detained two Russian soldiers who had fled the front in the Donetsk region and were trying to reach Kyiv. They changed into civilian clothes and asked a driver to take them to the Dnipro.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was reported<\/a> by the Security Service of Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The detainees were serving under contract in the 291st Motorized Rifle Regiment of the Southern Military District of the Russian Federation. They were stopped at a checkpoint at the entrance to the Dnipropetrovsk region. One of the men was found to be wearing a Russian army serviceman’s badge.<\/p>\n

According to the investigation, both soldiers were sent to storm Ukrainian positions in the Kramatorsk direction. They later escaped from the contact line and reached a village in the gray zone.<\/p>\n

In the abandoned house, the men found civilian clothes, and buried their military uniforms and service weapons.<\/p>\n

After that, they set off towards the district center, stopped the car on the way, and agreed with the driver to take them to Dnipro.<\/p>\n

According to the SBU, from there the men planned to get to Kyiv, where relatives of one of them live, and hide.<\/p>\n
