The former US Special Forces engineer says the overwhelming numbers of land mines is wildly different from anything he saw in Afghanistan. "There are millions and millions of mines in Ukraine," many put down by the Ukrainians, but significantly more by the Russians. The Russians have "the capability to lay millions and millions of land mines, and they do," he said, stressing that "the biggest shaping factor of this war is land mines." "Any movement, offense, or counteroffense, assaults, or anything like that, the commander has to take into account land mines," Hendrickson said. "The casualties that the Ukrainians are suffering on this offensive," Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff US Army Gen. Mark Milley said this week, "they're from minefields — minefields that are covered with direct fire from anti-tank hunter-killer teams, that sort of thing."

Ukraine wants a demilitarized border zone up to 60 miles into Russian territory, its intel chief said. He said it would prevent future conflict and "shouldn't be an issue" if Russia doesn't plan attacks. Budanov added that Ukraine wants the demilitarized zone even if Russian President Vladimir Putin is overthrown, as it would help conserve peace in the future. Budanov was also asked by Ukrainian YouTube channel Rizni Lyudi if Ukraine had killed any Russian "propagandists" since the invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022. He told a different Ukrainian YouTube channel that those attacks, which included attacks on Russian oil facilities, were the actions of unhappy Russians.
He told Insider that there are common themes among captives: ignorance and regret. Zolkin, a former lawyer, became a YouTube hit last March when he started posting interviews with captured Russian soldiers. He said he always asks the Russian soldiers, on camera, if they want to be interviewed beforehand. "Unfortunately, they are all in the vacuum of Russian propaganda, and nobody tells them what is actually going on," Zolkin told Insider. He said many of the Russian soldiers he interviewed have also since been brought back home.
