RUSSIAN prisoners of war have revealed how their side was obliterated by Ukraine’s lightning-quick cross-border blitz into Kursk.

They told that some had been conscripted from inside Russian prisons by Vladimir Putin’s henchmen.

Others disclosed they had been brainwashed by the authorities into believing they were fighting “Nazis”.

They spoke to The Sun on Sunday after we were granted exclusive access to the PoW camp in Ukraine.

Prison deputy governor Volodymyr Ivanovich revealed the captives were utterly terrified by Russian propaganda.

“They have all these ideas we are Nazis and fascists,” he told us.

“It is deeply embedded in their heads.

“They experience this fear that they will beaten up or tortured.

“As soon as they realise it’s not like that, they relax a bit.”

Some of the captured man fought for hours, some survived weeks, before they were held and taken into Ukraine.
