INFO ABOUT THIS EVENT:
-
January 20th,
2015. In their last attempt to recapture to recently lost
Donetsk Airport, the
Ukrainian Army got captured by
Somali Battalion led by
Commander Givi.
Motorola's
Unit Sparta Battalion was also in the vicinity. In Mid-January were very serious battles for the old and new terminals of the
Airport, where suspected mercenaries were also fighting alongside
UAF, evident from
NATO Weapon stockpiles found (https://youtu.be/HO3RuLUZneg). The
Ukrainian Armed Forces needed to take the Donetsk Airport back at any cost, thus started bombing and shelling the
City itself.
The people were angry from a earlier multiple artillery strikes on their city which killed civilians including children (at 20:50 on the left side is seen a freshly dead civilian on the street). The captured colonel was giving the coordinates of where to shell, which was
Donetsk Central City District, instead of
NAF positions, in hopes that NAF would retreat from the Airport to defend the
Citizens of Donetsk, but instead the
DPR ambushed the
Artillery Positions and captured the
Colonel. The conclusion of the battle for the Airport would later lead to the
Battle of Debaltseve 2-3 weeks later, which was captured just hours before
Minsk II Ceasefire was implemented (the ceasefire was a tactic by
Poroshenko and the EU in hopes to freeze the
Battle of Debatlseve and prevent it from returning to DPR &
LPR Control).
Ukrainian Commanders leaving their units' to save their own asses seems to be a common act. A compilation of such situations will soon be translated and uploaded.

INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THE COLONEL:
The Colonel was released in June
I believe (will re-check to clarify). He is considered a "
Hero" of Ukraine, was awarded a medal by
President Poroshenko for "Bravery &
Courage in the face of captivity by an
Aggressive Nation" even though Somali + Sparta Battalion's are consisted of Donetsk residents which has been proven, and I believe the Colonel now trains and instructs future Artillery
Personnel based on information last heard of him.
The others were later exchanged in late February with the other 1,
500 POWs taken captive in mid-February during the
Debaltseve battle.
