If the incursion forces are only so big, what do you do if there are too many prisoners? Are they sending them back to ukraine, is movement back and forth freely done, or is something like that more risky as it moves you away from the larger force as you go deeper.
They are being almost certainly moved into Ukraine proper. Russia has captured a lot of Ukrainian soldiers in the beginning of the full scale invasion. Those Russians will most likely be exchanged for those.
As for bringing them back, it is obviously dangerous, but Ukraine has drones and will monitor the area. Also once they surrender, they will not fight back. So less enemy soldiers in the region. The reason we see so many Russians surrender is that they are conscripts. They did not choose to go to war for money, but were more or less forced to go it. So moral is low and they are outclassed by the experienced battle hardened Ukrainians in the region.
Yeah, most of the people in Russia that wanted to go to war or were indifferent to it are already dead or still on the frontline, so a lot of the newest conscripts are people who didnt wanna fight, but were forced to do so anyway.
