A Russian soldier identified as Mikhail Fomin, also known as "Kipish," reportedly surrendered to Ukrainian forces twice. Fomin, who has a criminal record, initially signed a contract to fight in the "Special Military Operation" but was captured by Ukrainian forces. After being exchanged, he was reportedly sent back to the front lines and subsequently surrendered again to soldiers from the 61st Brigade after stepping on a mine.

The post also provides contact information for the "I Want to Live" center, a Ukrainian initiative for Russian soldiers seeking to surrender voluntarily, including Telegram and WhatsApp numbers and a chatbot link.
