This is the humiliating moment Vladimir
Putin’s troops were forced to drop to their knees and wave white flags as they surrendered to Ukraine.
Armed Ukrainians can be seen making their
Russian enemies hand themselves over “en masse” with their hands behind their heads as the battle for Kursk enters its sixth day.
Footage appears to show a Ukrainian soldier standing tall as three rows of crouching
Russians cower in a field.
The captives were made to say “Glory to Ukraine” back to the gun-wielding soldier, the footage shows.
In a separate clip, nine FSB security service officers were seen walking together in a line as they gave themselves up to Ukrainian troops.
Shocking video shows some of the officers waving white flags as others hold up their hands in defeat.
The embarrassing set of surrenders took place somewhere in the war-torn Kursk region but no further information has been given on where the captives were held.
Vladimir Osechkin, founder of Gulagu.net, an anti-torture human rights group, said the videos will come as a huge shock for the Kremlin.
He said: “Dozens of Russian servicemen, including a whole number of FSB staff have surrendered to Ukrainian Armed Forces.
“There is shock among the Federal Security Service members, because it is one thing when the war is somewhere far away, and another when your FSB colleagues are captured and forced to lie face
down, and taken away to become a part of an exchange fund.”
The scenes are set to anger an already
“scared and seething” Putin after he was caught out by the surprise mini invasion this
week.
Ukrainian troops stormed Russian borders in the first invasion of Russia since World War
2.
President Volodymyr Zelensky’s men went on the offensive with a barrage of calculated strikes as they pushed back against
Vlad’s army who steamed into Ukraine in
February 2022.
They are reported to have killed hundreds of Russian troops, blitzed a key airfield, and spread chaos in Putin’s own backyard.
Their latest blitz saw Kursk city pounded by a wave of kamikaze drones and Tochka-U tactical missiles overnight.
A residential building was seen up in flames following one of the blasts with footage showing a car on fire and plumes of smoke billowing into the sky.
Fire crews watched on as dozens were reportedly injured after Russia downed one of the four missiles.
Governor of Kursk region Alexei Smirnov said: “Today a downed Ukrainian missile fell on a residential building in the city of Kursk.
“A fire broke out.”
Further reports of regional power outages and even a giant fireball blast on a gas rig in the Black Sea have also plagued Putin’s army.
