During the evening of February 24, 2022, Vladimir Putin took to the national stage, declaring the commencement of a "military special operation." The alleged objective of this operation was to shield the inhabitants of Donbas from a purported "genocide" and the "demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine." Unquestionably, these are falsified claims aimed at propaganda, seeking to rationalise a full-blown invasion of an independent nation.

In the early morning, the Russian military launched attacks on military infrastructure throughout Ukraine. The leader of the Kremlin aimed for a swift capture of the most strategic cities, including Kyiv, with plans to establish a puppet administration.

Vladimir Putin's assumptions proved to be incorrect. The error arose due to the immense determination and readiness of the Ukrainians to defend their sovereignty. Hence, Russia's invasion of Ukraine has now lasted nearly two years.

From the start, Anton Gerashchenko, an advisor to the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs, started sharing information regarding the war online. This time, he has shared a video recorded by one of Putin's soldiers.

The video showcases two Russian soldiers positioned in a stairway. They are handcuffed to the railings, and beside them are bottles used as makeshift lavatories.

As per the details shared by the Ukrainian advisor, the soldiers were left in these dire circumstances for several days.

Members of military unit number 41680 reported being assaulted by their commanding officers and were kept in handcuffs for a few days post lodging a complaint. One of the soldiers was subsequently dispatched to the front line, while his comrade disappeared - revealed Anton Gerashchenko on X service (previously known as Twitter).
