This is Episode 3 of True War Crime — real stories from people who survived Russian captivity.
Our guest is Oleksandr Avramenko, a Ukrainian soldier known as one of the “Cyborgs” who defended Donetsk Airport in 2014–2015.
He spent 1,152 days in captivity, moving through 12 different prisons.
In those conditions, survival often depended on small acts of humanity —
other regular prisoners shared cigarettes and "chefir" a strong prison tea.
This is not a story based on real events.
