RT: Ukrainian troops surrendering en masse – TASS
More than 10,000 of Kiev’s forces have reportedly laid down arms in recent weeks, using a special radio channel to contact the Russian military
Large numbers of Ukrainian troops have surrendered to the Russian military in recent weeks, using a special radio frequency designed for fighters willing to lay down arms, TASS reported on Wednesday.
The frequency, 149.200 call sign ‘Volga’, was set up by the Russian military during the summer. Thus far, it has been used by more than 10,000 Ukrainian servicemen who were subsequently taken into Russian custody, according to a source with knowledge of the situation cited by TASS. The person added that the radio frequency is active along the entire front line.

Update #1: Over 10,000 Ukrainian fighters surrender since summer using special radio frequency (TASS).
Update #2: The source named the number of people who used the open frequency 149.200 “Volga” to surrender military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (Top War)
WNU Editor: Ukraine is also claiming the same thing. Aside from paying people to defect .... Ukraine pays USD 500,000 to Russian pilot who surrendered with Mi-8 helicopter (Euromaidan), Kyiv is also making the claim that Russian soldiers are surrendering .... Over 200 Russian soldiers surrender to Ukraine thanks to "I Want to Live" project (Ukrinform).
I am always skeptical of these reports. But what I do find is disturbing is a large discrepancy in the number of POWs that both sides claim to have. On the Russian sides I understand there are thousands of POWs currently in detention. On the Ukraine side the number is only a few hundred.

NERVOUS MUCH? Last night near Tokmak, Russian air defenses locked on and destroyed one of their own Su-35 strike fighters. Reports indicate that the shoot down occurred in the vicinity of Tokmak.
I am suspicious of any and all claims by either side during a war.
Not nervous at all. But what really happened there was that the Ghost of Kiev shot that fighter down then he went on to destroy Putin's personal Jet.
And meanwhile Putin is forced to wine and dine ex Wagner commander , and once again rely on his men to prop up his disastrous 3 day op.
Now the Canary is letting the cat into his cage..l...again...lol
Thats right faz!!
Th Russians are in horrible shape!! Sanctions Are working!!
The Russian Army is incompetent!!
The russian defenses are a paper Tiger!!
How do we know thIs?
Well the sky writing message by the Ghost of Kiev said it was all true.
Prisoner tallys are a function of success on the battlefield. The more successful you are, the more prisoners you will have.
The other thing that might be in play here for the Ukrainians to have such Low POW numbers? They are murdering those that are captured.
But we do not know do we? We do not.
This will be one of those issues where the truth comes out 5 or 10 years from now.
