Ukrainian POW alleges brother declared deserter

A Ukrainian prisoner of war has made an allegation that his brother, a mobilized soldier, was falsely declared a deserter after being severely wounded in combat. The 32-year-old soldier was struck in the head by shell fragmentation, leaving him deaf and requiring three operations. According to the POW, a doctor from the soldier's former unit visited and filed the deserter paperwork, which resulted in the termination of his military payments and benefits. The claim highlights internal grievances and potential administrative failures within the Ukrainian military system.
