Captured Russian troops weep as they admit to killing innocent Ukrainians: 'It's been a meat grinder here'

 By Emily Crane

Russian soldiers who have been captured in Ukraine have been filmed weeping and admitting to killing innocent civilians, as they beg their mothers to come to rescue them.

The confessional videos are among those being shared online by the Security Service of Ukraine after President Vladimir Putin ordered the full-scale invasion last week.

One soldier claimed that Russian forces were killing their own wounded soldiers and leaving their bodies behind without informing their relatives, Ukrainian officials said.

“We are killing civilians who haven’t done anything wrong,” a Russian soldier said in one video when he was asked what he was doing in Ukraine.

Another confessed: “Let Vladimir Putin see this. Enough. It’s been a meat grinder here. Children are being killed.”

Others cried as they called relatives to reveal they had been captured, including some who said they didn’t know they were being sent to fight.

“I became a prisoner of war in Ukraine,” one soldier said during a call.

One soldiers compared the conditions to a “meat grinder.”
