Russian soldier surrenders to Ukrainian drone in dramatic Bakhmut battlefield moment.

A Russian soldier, Ruslan Anitin, who surrendered to Ukrainian forces after being cornered alone near the city of Bakhmut, spoke for the first time about his experience. Anitin communicated his surrender via an aerial drone's camera. He made a last ditch effort to reason with the Ukrainian artillery men via the camera on a drone observing him. The Ukrainian forces, taking mercy on Anitin, used the drone to lead him toward their fortified position. He was imprisoned by the Ukrainian military and has willingly refrained from contacting his family since escaping the battlefield. If Anitin returns to Russia via a prisoner exchange, he will almost certainly be imprisoned and receive severe punishment.
