A Russian soldier was fired upon by his own side as he tried to surrender to a Ukrainian drone in Bakhmut, according to a Ukrainian official. The footage, taken by the Code 9.2 unit of Ukraine's 92nd Mechanized Brigade, shows the soldier making his way through explosions and trenches before approaching a dugout with his hands raised. The soldier, from the Pskov region in western Russia, is now a prisoner of war. The encounter is an example of how "Ukrainian soldiers find such creative ways to defeat Russians on the battlefield," said the official.
