How eager will the russian POWs be to answer questions? I imagine that a conscript will have low morale anyway and might be willing to talk, but then he doesn't know much anyway. The HVIs on the other hand may have some motivation and training to withstand interrogation at least until their knowledge becomes at least partially obsolete. How "persuasive" are the Ukrainian interrogations?
Excellent write up. As you say, we'll likely never hear just exactly what intel they extracted, but I do very much hope they're able to acquire plenty from their captures.
Wow dude.....you are up EARLY!!!!!!
Fascinating! Thanks for the writeup!

Forget the conscripts: they're clueless.
But, the FSB... and all the documentation left in the local FSB-headquarters... alone that's going to keep the Ukrainians busy for weeks and months.
No wonder the Russians asked for a prisoner exchange so quickly 😎👍
Good luck in getting acitionable infos from conscripts
Please see my reply to Hernik above.

Syrsky has just announced the total number of POWs from Kursk as 594.
Was looking for a link claiming a similar figure on basis of videos, early this morning, but couldn't find it.
Yes I'm sure the lowly fsb border guards will have loads of top notch intell
Thanks for this report Benjamin
Interesting info! Thanks Benjamin!
