Georgian volunteer fighting for Ukraine in Kursk region addresses Russian military

A Georgian soldier fighting for the Ukrainian Armed Forces recorded a video message to the Russian military. He showed a wall inscription in Kursk region. This is a response to the Russian military to a similar message left in Georgia in 2008, the author of the video explains.

"In 2008, Russia occupied 205 territories of Georgia. Russian military then wrote on the wall "Georgians, learn real military affairs." Well, we followed this advice and together with the Ukrainians came to take the exam on your territory," the volunteer said.

Ukrainian media, citing sources in the SBU, claim that the Ukrainian Armed Forces captured the largest number of Russian servicemen at one time. Their number was 102 people. It is claimed that among the prisoners there are fighters of the Akhmat unit and the 488th Guards Motorized Rifle Regiment of the Russian Armed Forces.
