@jesusaguilar4585 Yes... The draftees in Kirsk weren't alowed to be in direct combat or a combat zone... It was a huge failure of Russian intelegence that they were caught in the middle. It is notable that a bunch of mechanics and cook enlisted held back the onslaught in Kirsk for a short time.

@jesusaguilar4585 I feel like it was a massive intelegence failure on the part of Russia. The kids were taken as POWS to Ukraine, they wern't supposed to be on any part of a hot zone, my undestanding is that some of them died. Many who were captured have nasty injuries and are not happy at all.
