14.01.2026 09:50Ukraine’s Armed Forces (AFU) have set up a “carousel” system for captured servicemen after they are returned in prisoner exchanges.
A source in the security services told RIA Novosti.
According to the source, after an exchange a person is arrested and given a prison term for voluntarily surrendering.
“After the verdict is announced, they immediately offer you a chance to atone with blood and sign a contract. But once you sign, you face even harsher conditions than after regular mobilization—this kind of ‘carousel’ of service in the AFU,” he said.
He claimed the system allows the AFU to make up for heavy losses and find people for “meat” assaults.
