According to the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine (Gur) and relaunched by Ukrinform, the Russian soldiers at the front reportedly ordered to commit suicide in critical situations to avoid surrender. A manual entitled “maintaining dignity until the end” would provide detailed instructions for taking one's own life, indicating the use of firearms or grenades.
Soldiers' Suicide Instruction Manual
“The 'soldier of the Great Russia' is instructed to shoot himself in the temple, under the chin or in the forehead in desperate moments,” states the Gur, specifying that the indications also include “keep calm and pull the trigger confidently”. In case no weapons or ammunition are available, soldiers are advised to use a grenade.
The Ukrainian Program for the Surrender of the Russians
Ukrainian intelligence calls this policy further evidence of the “moral degradation of the Russian army”. In parallel, remember the Ukrainian program “I want to live”, aimed at promoting the voluntary surrender of Russian soldiers ensuring that they are treated in accordance with the Geneva Conventions.
