The 'I Want To Live' project says it is getting up to 100 enquiries a day from invading troops.
By James WaterhouseThe Ukrainian government has said a scheme it created for Russian soldiers to surrender is getting up to 100 enquiries a day.By calling a hotline or entering details through messenger apps, Russian troops can arrange the best way to surrender to Ukrainian forces.
In a small office we meet Svitlana, not her real name, a Ukrainian call handler who speaks to Russian soldiers daily. "First of all, we hear a voice, mainly male," she explains. "It's often part-desperate, part-frustrated, because they don't fully understand how the hotline works, or whether it's just a set-up.
It seems Moscow has now blocked the phone numbers from being reached inside Russia. Calls from either a UK or Russian Sim card are greeted with an error message."Ask yourself a question - what are you fighting for?" says the dramatic voice-over in Ukraine's "I Want To Live" propaganda video aimed at Russian soldiers.
