The Cheka-OGPU spoke with former prisoners who were recruited and are now fighting in the ranks of the Wagner PMC. Here are the most informative remarks from the mercenaries.
“Half of the term is already over. Exactly 3 months out of 6 (six months later, Yevgeny Prigozhin promised the prisoners freedom) we managed to survive. Alas, hundreds of those who came with us did not live to reach the equator.”
“From one colony, a real surgeon was recruited to the front, who worked in a hospital before prison. So, now he has no face, he looks worse than his wounded patients. During these three months he sleeps 2-3 hours a day, and the rest of the time he has to work. On average, this surgeon performs 20 operations of varying complexity per day.”
“Most people die from shelling. It flies a lot and strongly”
“The tasks are the same. We are moving little by little towards Bakhmut. We sort everything out along the way. The assault for which we were prepared a month ago is becoming protracted, and not everything is so smooth and simple.”
“Some live in the trenches for months. Those who are wounded are usually taken to Lugansk; as soon as they are treated, they go back. The security service of the PMC is closely vigilant about this and to ensure that they do not use communications there.”
“They announced to us that after three months we have earned a day off, and soon they will give us time off. But you can’t tell anyone about the possibility of leaving, everything is kept strictly secret.”
“No events or Prigozhin’s 100 grams were announced for the New Year. On the contrary, the authorities pointedly said that we would fight from the 31st to the 1st.”
“As gifts for the New Year, all PMC fighters without exception were given kits with warm clothes.”
