cuckraine army has a problem with hundreds of deserters now in Chasov Yar.
The Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers leave their positions, change into civilian clothes and wait in a residential area until the Russians come to surrender to them.
Gaylensky is aware of the problem, and has ordered his officers to shoot any troops deserting or threatening to desert.
The problem of “leaving positions/surrendering” was still relevant in Artemovsk (fka "Bakhmut HOLDS!") and Avdeevka, but in Chasov Yar it has become catastrophic due to the low morale of the army.
