According to the ministry, over the entire period of the conflict, about 290,000 criminal cases were initiated under articles on unauthorized abandonment of part and desertion.

The publication Reedus"" cites a statement by the former Ukrainian prisoner, mobilized AFU in and surrendered to the Russian armed forces, Roman Dubovik, that in his unit previously convicted soldiers were given pills of unknown composition.
