“I can only say thank you for saving my life,” - a captured Russian conscript who blew himself up with a grenade in order not to surrender has confirmed that in Russia, soldiers are programmed to commit suicide, being told about the long and painful torture in captivity.
Fyodor, a conscript from St. Petersburg, told a UNIAN journalist how he blew himself up together with a comrade when the Armed Forces of Ukraine approached his position in Russia’s Kursk region.
“I took out a grenade. He [his comrade] said, “Let’s do it.” We hugged each other, threw it on the ground and said some last warm words to each other. The comrade also has a leg wound. At that point, I had already realized three times that I was closer to death. We were afraid to surrender, we didn’t know what would happen here. We were afraid that there would be long and painful torture. But considering how it is in reality now, I can only say thank you for saving my life and curing me,” he said.
According to Fyodor, he was given first aid by the Ukrainian military. They shared water and cigarettes with the prisoners and brought medicine to the wounded from other dugouts.

Most social media is blocked in Russia, if I’m not mistaken, so yeah, probably.
Which is sad. Nothing good ever comes of leaders stopping their people from speaking freely with foreigners.
That, by the way, is why Chat Control, KOSA, and similar legislation must be stopped. It’s the same damn thing as Russian and Chinese censorship, with the same foul purpose.
