Details: The reports indicate that during an attempted assault, a group of five Russian mercenaries came under heavy fire from Ukrainian forces and took shelter in a private house. Unable to continue fighting or retreat, the Russians voluntarily surrendered.

Additionally, another Russian soldier – the only survivor of his assault group – spent six days wandering between houses. Realising he would not receive any support, he eventually decided to surrender, the National Guard reported.
