[0:01](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=1) I am, uh… an active- duty enlisted Guardsman.

[0:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=3) Dmitry Pospelov Sergeyevich, 433rd Regiment, 27th Division, military unit 00991. I'm currently in the first battalion, first company.

[0:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=11) Uh, the thing is, uh… I was reported in 2024, uh…

[0:15](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=15) as AWOL by mistake. Uh, I have a document confirming that I was reported by mistake, I do.

[0:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=20) So, right now, uh… they're gathering people like me, who were reported as AWOL, who were active-duty conscripts, and they're planning to send us off to be slaughtered.

[0:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=29) Uh… I'm disabled. I have no right eye, I'm deaf in my right ear, and I'm also missing organs, and my nerves have been severed.

[0:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=35) I have all the documents to prove it. A discharge request has been filed.

[0:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=38) The military medical commission was completed ages ago.

[0:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=39) I have all those documents, basically. I have the supporting documents right here in my hands.

[0:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=43) There. They're sending me on a combat mission.

[0:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=47) In other words, it's a one- way trip. I won't be coming back from there.

[0:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/870roYJgjAeg/en/dmitry-pospelov-says-he-faces-combat-deployment-despite-disability?t=51) There. I'm asking you to help however you can.
