USV soldier: "Send dozens of people"

According to a statement by a former Ukrainian Armed Forces serviceman and drone unit commander of the Maxym Kryvonis Battalion 'Hunter,' he reports that the leadership at the front is 'shouting,' demanding to send 10–20 people to their deaths.

The soldier described how in the last days of his stay at the position, he saw the bodies of the dead, and during the evacuation of the wounded, there was insufficient manpower. According to him, 'plus five new positions, each occupied by three people.' As a result, 'only one person remained at each position' after days of repeated drone attacks.

He noted that initially they were allowed to retrieve the dead, but later were told 'there are neither forces nor time for this,' and it lost priority.

The report was included in the project 'THIS IS DIFFERENT' and announced as 'details about the situation.'
