Drone Drops Instructions For Surrender To Russian Soldier
Published 8 months ago
Interesting footage, and a nice break from the bleak carnage content flowing from the Ukrainian battlefield shows a lone Russian soldier, surrounded by the bodies of his fallen buddies, having a written note dropped onto him rather than a grenade.
The Russian sees the drop coming and he runs around the destroyed tank hull to take cover from an expected blast. When the object doesn't explode, he grabs it, takes a look, but quickly throws it away, scared it may be a delayed fuze munition. He then grabs it again, realizing there is an attached document that reads: IF YOU WANT TO LIVE, FOLLOW THE DRONE.
After reading the script, the Russian rapidly acknowledges in agreement with a hod to the drone. He then follows it back to a Ukrainian fighting position where he is taken as a prisoner of war. His future is uncertain, but it has the potential for a better outcome than what inevitably would have happened on the battlefield.
