Inside a prisoner of war camp for Russians in Ukraine – BBC News

Published

on



Ukraine and Russia have been cooperating with prisoner of war exchanges despite the continuing war.

Kyiv said this month it had secured the release of 1,762 men and women so far in prisoner swaps.

These are highly sensitive operations, often taking months to arrange. Under the Geneva Conventions, prisoners of war must not be paraded or exposed to the public.

The BBC has been given rare access to one facility where captured Russian soldiers are held in the west of Ukraine.

    You soldiers are a disgrace why do you allow yourself to be a POW?
    You live as a soldier you die as a soldier
    If you’re about to die you take any enemy along with you, you don’t allow whatever enemy to fight another day

    I truely hope ukraines allies lease Ukraine the same kind and same amount of weapons and equipment russia used in the 2022 full scale blitzkrieg invasion with massive amounts of armored vechicles, tanks, attack helicopters, fighter jets, reconnaissance aircraft, missile and artillery systems, lots of soldiers and minefields, small coastal ships not even warships just coastal ships with shoulder missiles and machine gun boats, that plus a base level Russian invasion force excluded modern fighters and hypersonic and new supersonic missiles and no war crimes. Ukraine will drive out russia out of all of Ukraine including donbas and crimea without a navy, modern jets and reconnaissance aircraft etc. Because of how well our nato and eu allied nations trained the Ukrainians plus there battlefield expierence and there will to fight to the last stand because its there home. Where Russia is an invader with volunteers and modern weapons and equipment and they still could not reach Kiev so russia had to start a draft and use mostly ita cold war era weapons and some even ww2. All this to invade a foriegn nation for its land. So morale is way way off or doesnt exist. But in Ukraine they got better weapons than before the war they just need larger amounts and then at least half the nations will volunteer to push Russia back all the way back to Moscow

    Definitely ukraines pow camps are way way rougher. Mine would be and my nation is only a non combatant Ukrainian allie/weapons provided/trainer/intelligence officers. But ukraine arresting russians who first did low level small invasions in the donbas region early 2010s then actually russian special forces annexed crimea in 2014 and was too scared to admit it. Then they spent 8 years after crimea and 10 years or more since donbas small battles before there full invasion and still russia couldn't reach kiev so they resulting in commiting multiple war crimes. So definitely Ukrainians will punish them out of spite which almost anyone would, 2 gather intelligence on past current and future operations by torture if nessary, 3 use the pows are trading chips for other prisoners and as leverage for possible peace talks and land trades.

    I predict that both sides, Ukraine (western allies) vs Russia (very few allies) will both be using the new advancement of Ai. Ai will find peace, or rather the West with the help of Ai will find peaceful agreements. Why i say Ai? Well, we're not smart enough to understand peaceful resolutions, we're still stuck in our jungle hate duality mentality.

    The russians are executing prisoners, starving and torturing everyone of them. Maybe mention that instead of saying that both sides have been treating prisoners badly. The difference is night and day.

    OPERATION HAIRBALL NO HOOK !
    10 years after the Viet war I found by trailing airliners from Zoowaii to Saigon airport thousands of US POWS sorting out Zoowaiian tourist amputated limbs and devastated head who had been injected or consumed Xolyenne a chemical that turns their skin any brilliant color of the Zoowaiian rainbow.
    I made a plan that night I would get out on an airliner flying them back to US homeland. Very few wanted to go! I manage to fill the seats flew them to the East coast and south coast return with a sealed envelope handed it to the commander read HAIRBALL NO HOOK he read to his men they all cheered and screamed they all wanted to go. Now the seats were filled with 3 to 4 man a seat!

    I work around the clock flying them to US a lot of them still did not want to go after packing those dead tourist corps did not trust our beloved government.

    I made a deal with the KGB they could under a diplomatic agreement with Vietnam take them as a work force in a war zone Afghanistan, 80,000 POWs they paid them for labor and feed them good and after length of time gave them passports to any country a lot based on ancestry if you were French decent you go there.

    This government after being exposed by the so-called enemy will kill any POW escapee instead of giving a medal!

    BBC, CNN/FNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, PBS, NYTimes, WSJ, Washington Post are all colluding to push the false construct/fake news about this war in Ukraine.
    They all jumped on Zelenskyy's Media Band Wagon, Western Corporations also hitched their wagons to a unified coordinated orchestrated well planned response to what they knew was coming! Russia's invasion to put a stop the the Bull Shit Zelenskyy, The US & British & Europeans to a lesser extent were up to in Ukraine. Europeans are slowing finding out the truth, Even Americans who are the stupidest sheep on the planet are starting to catch on to why, when & who started this war in Europe. The truth is slowing emerging & as Western's find out more their gonna be really pissed! When their really pissed there going to vote and then the shit will hit the fan!

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
