Military servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine recorded on video how Russian soldiers surrendered as prisoners in the Kherson region, wrapping the BMP-2 turret in a white cloth.

A Russian man got out of the combat vehicle, surrounded by Ukrainian soldiers, waving another piece of white cloth. Finally, the car was stopped, and two Russian soldiers got out of it with raised hands, and then lay down on the ground.

Also in Kherson, according to the military blog MilitaryLand.net, two more T-62M tanks were captured.

On Tuesday, Ukraine already announced an offensive in northern Kherson Oblast (south), while almost all of Kharkiv Oblast (northeast) is now under Ukrainian control, paving the way to Luhansk, a separatist stronghold established by Moscow since 2014.

His press secretary Dmytro Peskov assured that these territories will remain Russian “forever” and that Moscow will regain the positions it has been losing wildly over the past month.

These territories “will be recaptured,” he assured at his daily conference.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday that he expects “stabilization” of the situation in the four partially controlled regions that Russia declared Russian territory on Friday.

“We assume that the situation will stabilize, we will be able to calmly develop these territories,” Putin said in his televised address.

Putin has previously vowed to do everything possible to defend the annexed territories, even if that means using nuclear weapons, a threat that has not stopped either the Ukrainian counteroffensive or Western arms shipments.
