The essential gist of the story is that Ukrainian soldiers are being welded inside of their tanks and forced to act as kamikaze attackers. Naturally, they don't want to do this, so they turn their tank turrets to the rear as they approach Russian lines, which indicates surrender and they give themselves up to Russian forces.
I don't believe that this is happening.
To start, welders are a very precious resource and they are far more useful on repair duty than to be pulled off work to do something like weld someone inside a tank. You can argue that some units might have soldiers who can weld, but if they did, those soldiers would be in the rear welding.
Second, Ukraine has fewer tanks than Russia and every single tank is precious. So it is unlikely that they would use such a resource on a one-way mission.
Third, it is very difficult to see when "buttoned up" or enclosed inside a tank. So most tank crewmen ride with their heads sticking out of the turret. They only close the hatches when about to enter combat. So welding soldiers inside of tanks would make them far less effective.
