Russian state-owned news outlet had previously reported that the Kremlin planned to deploy a battalion of former Ukrainian soldiers to fight for Moscow in October, stating that the men allegedly volunteered to fight for Moscow. Russia has officially deployed a battalion formed of Ukrainian prisoners of war (POWs) to the frontline in Ukraine, further confirming a myriad of apparent Russian violations of the Geneva Convention on Ukrainian prisoners of war . Russian authorities planned to deploy the former Ukrainian soldiers with a group of troops already fighting on the frontlines in Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia Oblast. Do you think that Ukraine will do the same considering the level of escalation ?
