bombardment, Russian soldier says

Around 440 Russian conscripts sent to fight in Luhansk were killed by Ukrainian shelling after they were abandoned by their unit's commanders, according to various media reports.

Russian reservist Aleksei Agafonov told The Guardian that out of the 570 mobilized draftees in his unit, only 130 survived the Ukrainian attack on November 1.

"I saw men being ripped apart in front of me, most of our unit is gone, destroyed. It was hell," he said, The Guardian's Russia affairs correspondent Pjotr Sauer reported.

A second, unnamed soldier corroborated Agafonov's account, saying that "hundreds" of reservists died that day, per The Guardian. "Two weeks of training doesn't prepare you for this," he told the outlet.
