Russian soldiers beg Shoigu for vacation, complaining about lack of winter uniforms and heaters.

They say gasoline and food are in short supply.

The occupiers from the 2nd Battalion, 6th Company, 26th Motorized Rifle Regiment, Military Unit 12267, recorded an appeal to the minister of defense, specifying that “in seven months, the soldiers have not had a single vacation, while the number of dead and wounded is growing.”

    Man, these guys seem really stupid. If i was on the wrong side of a war and was left out to dry without even getting paid i think I’d just defect.

        A good percentage of them probably thinks that the Ukrainians would torture them (because that’s what they’d do to Ukrainians), not to mention how many Russians think Ukrainians are somehow subhuman.

      That’s easier said than done. Also, most of them agree on principle that Russia is justified to invade Ukraine. They just think that it’s others that should do the dying.

      Yes, and face death penalty. And surrendering to Ukrainians is a tough deal, because propaganda tells them that Ukrainians will give them much worse than death if they surrender.

      If my job stopped paying me, I’d switch and they don’t even expect me to risk my life!
