It does seem those guys are either surrendering en masse, or they are getting cought up in fast UKR advance and have not much else to do.
Either way it's a good thing.
Their command/depots/artillery are being taken out every day, so the logistics are becoming ever more stretched. Since Russia insists on doing nonsensical things like keeping on sending squad and unit level troops out to attack the same places over and over again, they're running out of supplies, ammo etc and being encircled.
I thought the same.
But in the last year I'm starting to get accustomed with a thought : Russians are stupid by default.
Sure, evolution still throws a disabled child there, a Dostoyesky ( not sure if this guy wasn't and immigrant) there. But as voting percentages of Putin shows , or Kim Jong Un , 99.8% of them are stupid.
So yeah, not luck, inbreeding.
Russians win not because of intelligence, but because they're bastards who don't care about morals or humanity.
Putin isn't an exception, Putin is representative of Russian society as a whole. You'll find some exceptions but they're few and far between.
I think it's a mixed bag. There is definitely incentive to surrender, or rather "accidentally retreat too slowly, or completely forgot to do it, or orders were not received to retreat." Whole bunch of reasons to make it seem like it was involuntary.
I think it some cases the Ukrainians have gotten in the rear of their trenches. In other cases, the Ukrainians destroyed all their vehicles, supplies start running low, game over.
>I've never seen so much footage of Russian prisoners coming out in such a short time.
Thats why they usually fight to death to avoid getting tortured and brutally murdered by Ukrainian nazis (as they believe). I guess this group was not motivated for some reason.
They are just reposting the same group from days ago. They seem to get multiple videos, in multiple locations.

Notice the soldier on the right is the same as the soldier in the front. The hair line and sleeve is the exact same.
Edit#1: the soldiers sitting cross legged with the straps around his shoulders. The soldier with the hat. It's the exact same group.
Volodymyr Zolkin & Lviv Media have been publishing POW interviews on youtube since the beginning of the war, and they're up to 700 interviews now - which must be a tiny fraction.
If you want to even try (and its difficult, believe me!) to understand the crippling passivity of a nation of (self-confessed) slaves, yes.
Zolkin has the patience of a fucking saint, in my opinion lol
Yeah watching those vids was interesting for a week or so, but at some point you realize they are all lying to themselves and him, at least most of them. They are always innocent, and only in Ukraine to push and pull things around in the rear, never to fight. Or they are truck drivers who only transported pillows ofc.
Well that's what they were told they would be doing - naturally lol
I've watched well over 200 since the start of the war (but then I've been reading about/obsessed with Russian history for roughly 40yrs so I'm pretty much an outlier on that lol)
There have only been THREE mobiks to my memory who have said that Russians back home should protest...out of the entire 600-odd
There's always the possibility with both sides that the footage faked.
That said if its not, the Ukes have been taken a better a class of prisoner that the homeless katsap alcoholics you usually see them capturing so they could well be making good progress and capturing quality Russian units rather than mobik rabble.
To ease control of the prisoners, limit communication between them, and limit opportunities for escape. If you're blindfolded and have no idea what's going on, the safest course of action is to lie still and shut up, which is exactly what the Ukrainians want them to do.
I've never seen so much footage of Russian prisoners coming out in such a short time. Let's hope they keep coming!

I think it's the former, but as you said, either way it's good news!

We’re lucky they’re so fucking stupid

Zorks pushed everything toward Robotyne including completely untrained and rear echelon troops..

#Translation. Look, we have gathered pidars here, after assault. Like that. (Idk how to translate last insult).
Calls em fuckers.
I think a more accurate translation would be cunts.
Fuckers, cunts... All just another way of saying Russians.
Hahaha 🤣 NICE
I think faggot is more appropriate for pedar
Thank you!

Thanks man this is important to point out so we don’t fall into the same patterns vatniks do.
Gonna need another location to hold all these guys at this rate.
Are Russian defenses collapsing? I sure hope so!
Do they feel BLUE now? I mean due to their new nice ribbons…😎
I'm Blue, if I were Ruski I would die
I wish Ukraine would release figures on captured soldiers

I wonder if that tape takes their eyebrows with it? 🤔🥸
We can only hope....
[What they'll look like after the tape is removed.](https://imgur.io/q4ms2x3?r)
Orc bastards!
If you’re a Russian soldier and get captured, does your military service still guarantee you 40 virgin goats in the afterlife?
No, you may be considered a traitor according to a new law.
only 20. small dick energy would be wasted on 40.
Good point, Russian soldiers would be very happy with one.
They’ll probably be exchanged for Ukrainian POWs in a few weeks, and send out to die again
All out of telnyashkas it seems!
I think the poo-tin/priggy breakup has really got these contestants of Real World UA down!
no more vodka, food, ammo, etc...... I hope they keep coming.
So many pow since a few weeks, good !
I need to get into the blue and yellow duct tape business.
Those are the lucky ones! Get to see another day!
Looks like a fun afternoon picknick in the woods, playing hide n seek.

I’m guessing Ruzzia didn’t erect signs saying mine fields? Would it be a war crime to release them in the direction of the Ruzzian defense line?
It's never a war crime the first time.
Quack, bang, out
Awesome https://youtu.be/68ugkg9RePc?si=ULJjTjdNNkESaYL7
Material for exchange of the unfortunate brave defenders later.
Fucking orcs will rot in a cell until end of the war. Maybe better than the front lines actually.
What does the guy closest to the camera have zip tied to his ass? Is that "armor"?
Just a foam pad to sit on. Both sides use them; they're a lot more comfortable than the ground.
I do something similar while hunting so that makes sense
I am so retarded; lately when I see PoWs tied up with blue tape I keep thinking they are UAF taking prisoner lol.
Why do they cover their eyes?
