Captured Russian soldiers are sending tearful messages to their families back home as the grim reality of war is sinking in for the Russian people. One Russian POW recorded a message directly to his mother to reassure her he was still alive. “I want to say to my mom, ‘Wait for me. I will return,’” he said. Published reports say the Ukrainian Defense Ministry has even invited Russian mothers to come to the capital of Kyiv to pick up their captured sons and take them home.

    Allowing mothers to pick up their captured sons is an honourable move.

    Allowing mothers of captured Russian soldiers to come and pick up their sons tell me a lot about the Ukrainian peoples mind set and their morals. This is to be admired and seen as an example of humanity!

    That old lady is so strong, it had me in tears. My heart breaks for all the people losing loved ones to this senseless war. You would have though that as a society as a hole we would know better by now. 😢

    You know you're heartless when your enemy has the humanity to send YOUR children back home to their mothers.

    It's always the people who pay the highest price, never the so called "leaders" and their families!

    My wife’s side of our family comes from a generation of war veterans and every one that’s still alive stated that the US has to put an end to this no matter the cost or future generations of all man kind will lose their freedoms.

    We stand with Ukraine, however we feel for these young Russian soldiers who were forced into this and were deceived or threatened. I feel for them and their mothers too.

    It was very moving to see even that old woman out there protesting the war. For someone who has seen the effects war has before, I imagine it's very heartbreaking to realize it's happening all over again.

    Showing mercy on your "enemy" is a true sign of character. Ukraine still takes the high road, despite the horrible things occurring there currently. I hope everything turns out okay.
