Captive Russians will be released if their mothers come to pick them up.

According to Minister of Internal Affairs, Anton Gerashchenko, “People around the world should convey this information to thousands of unfortunate Russian mothers whose sons came to war with Ukraine and have been captured. The mothers of captured Russian soldiers must first find out whether their son is in captivity or dead, and to do this, they must go to the Telegram channel Cargo 200. If a mother is looking for her son, she can call the multi-channel telephone hotline of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine – Come Back Alive From Ukraine – at the following numbers: +380894201860; +380894201861; +380894201862.
