It looks like several thousand in the Kharkiv region, the penetration of the lines and encirclement of some units was so fast they didn’t have any choice. But then several thousand Ukrainians were captured in Mariupol. I’m not trying to make out there’s an asymmetry in this, it’s not intended as a partisan comment. I’m just pointing out that surrendering is a viable option on both sides in many circumstances and is actually happening, sometimes for whole units.
