OREANDA-NEWS  Russian servicemen captured Ukrainian boxer Andrey Prikhodko from the Kraken sabotage unit. This is reported by a RIA Novosti correspondent who communicated with the prisoner.

"Before the service, I was engaged in professional boxing — 15 years of experience, I have such regalia as champion of Ukraine, champion of the Cup of Ukraine, master of Sports," Prikhodko said.

As the prisoner clarified, he went to serve after a misunderstanding with the coach. According to Andrey Prikhodko, in order to make a career or get a good job, you need to provide a military ID in Ukraine.

The boxer also admitted that he was captured in the Artemovsky direction when the fighters went on the offensive from the village of Chas Yar. From there, he, along with other fighters, transferred to the BMP-1 and arrived at the positions of the Russian Armed Forces. According to the boxer, after a while they moved away from the positions. The military spent the whole night in the bushes, and a combat medic was also wounded.

"We spent the night under shelling, under gunfire, and the next morning we moved to the evacuation group," said Prikhodko.

He also said that after getting lost, the Kraken fighters came out again to the positions of Russian servicemen.

"As a result, a fight turned out, I was walking at the end, I couldn't shoot, I was wounded and I started rolling into the pit," the Ukrainian stressed.

Earlier, the leader of the terrorist organization "Russian Volunteer Corps" (RDK), which took part in attacks on the territory of Russia (a terrorist organization banned in the Russian Federation), Denis Kapustin, said that the Ukrainian authorities support the militants of this group. Thus, he refuted the statements of Kiev, which has repeatedly denied accusations of cooperation with the RDK.

On July 4, it became known that the RDK is part of the Kraken sabotage unit. This was stated on June 14 by the coordinator of the Nikolaev underground Sergey Lebedev.
