Gregory's Server24/ Soldiers have instead taken the opportunity to flee while on visits to the rear, for example on trips to the hospital. The military authorities in the Kherson region have cracked down by stopping soldiers going to the hospital, even if they are wounded and need treatment.

26/ "Constant fighting. Sometimes a little less, sometimes a little more. They don't talk about losses in the news at all. And they must be assessed as catastrophic. They don't feel sorry for people at all. It's like they're not people. And this makes everyone around me go wild." 27/ The soldier suggests that his unit is deliberately hiding the scale of its desertions β some of whom may have surrendered β likely to avoid commanders facing embarassing questions, in an example of the Russian military's ingrained culture of lying. "[These are] cards of my missing guys, who were in the group at first, and then they were simply deleted! I accidentally managed to save a few. This is only a small number, they are simply cleared from the database so as not to be looked for."  and all this horror and brutality for what? for the nostalgia and vanity of a cadre of mafia goons in moscow and st petersburg who want to revive past russian "glory" well here is your "glory" you ethnofascist mass murderers  @benroyce @ChrisO_wiki Putin is destroying the Russian future for nothing. @Raccoon @ChrisO_wiki they were already in demographic crisis. solution: as you say, a meat grinder. degrade the economy to a medieval war footing and place yourself in vassal status to china. destroy all diplomatic goodwill except with the likes of north korea and iran. drive anyone with foresight and means to flee at the start of the war, humungous brain drain. etc russia reduced to a destitute pariah barking threats to nuke everyone. pure tragedy. the end game of mafia thugocracy |
25/ A soldier says that they "practically stopped taking people to the hospital from [Kherson region] in the winter of 2023. They donβt take you to the hospital even if youβre injured. They provided help, whoever was nearby, and then fed us breakfast. But there is no calm here.
