Captured Ukrainian serviceman speaks about constant shortage of personnel and food in AFU units

Nikolay Lysenko and several of his fellow servicemen were surrounded and surrendered during the liberation of Strelechya (Kharkov region) by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

For more than a year Nikolay served in the material support unit, but due to the shortage of servicemen he was transferred to a motorised rifle company and got to the front line, despite the lack of necessary training.

In addition to the shortage of personnel, the AFU units, according to the prisoner, are experiencing serious problems with supplies. Servicemen have to travel to the city on their own to buy food and essentials.

'There was a shortage of everything, there were no supplies. Everyone was always waiting. We were waiting things and everything,' Nikolay recalls.
