It’s harder to surrender when your language is more distinct.
It’s pretty easy to die when you’ve never seen combat and are facing battle-hardened soldiers though.
Not to mention they’re likely to malnourished and uniformed about the nature of the conflict.
Russian MREs are probably the best thing they’ve eaten in their lives. They will live like kings for a very short time.
Unarmed, hands up is the international sign.
Ukrain is aware and probably giken minimal training - at least howito get a trasnlator on the phone.
