How are they being so easily captured? What's going on there?

it's a mindset. pretty much none of them asked to be there, and they're not fighting to defend their homes, so why the fuck should I do anything dangerous?

Also think about what the Ukrainian soldiers know about what's at stake, and think about that core to the Russian experience is never knowing what truth is

They fall back on their most recent training; prison training. They sit when told, doesn't matter who instructs them.
