Footage shows Russians abandoning comrade to drown after Ukrainian attack
It’s a sink-or-swim world – at least according to some scared Russian soldiers.
Russian soldiers have once again proven that the tired Kremlin narrative that they “do not abandon their own” is a myth, after soldiers are seen leaving a comrade to drown in a video shared by Telegram channel Supernova+ on April 24.
Traveling by motorboat somewhere between the islands near Kherson, the Russians came under fire from Ukrainian defenders, causing a soldier to fall into the water.
Instead of trying to pull him back on board, the unfortunate soldier’s buddies left him to drown under the weight of his own equipment simply to save their own skins by escaping as quickly as possible.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
