When Yevhen Kalashnikov found an opening to surrender to Ukrainian troops in April, he made a run for it. As he ran, mortars landed and exploded all around him, he told a press conference in Kyiv in August. Weeks before surrendering, Russia’s Security Service (FSB) conscripted Kalashnikov, a Ukrainian student, into the Russian army for publishing photos of a bridge used for Russian military logistics in his hometown of Novoazovsk in Donetsk Oblast, a town under Moscow’s control since 2014.
