Experienced contract soldiers refuse to fight in the first echelon of troops, so inexperienced conscripts are sent to replace them.
The top military leadership of Russia continues to send conscripts to the war in Ukraine, despite the Kremlin’s statements about preventing the participation of conscripts in the so-called “special operation”.
This was reported by the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
According to Ukrainian intelligence, it is the conscripts who die first during the hostilities.
“Poor training, obsolete weapons and equipment lead to inevitable death or injury. Another reason for the high mortality of conscripts in the army of the occupying country is their involvement in actions in the first echelon of troops, in which more experienced contract soldiers refuse to participate,” the statement says. in the message.
The Russian command is not able to ensure the full-fledged recruitment of combat units, despite the covert mobilization on the territory of Russia and the forced mobilization of men in the temporarily uncontrolled territories of Ukraine.
“Mothers of Russian conscripts, realizing the inevitability of the death of their children, complain about the illegal actions of commanders to Tatyana Moskalkova, the Commissioner for Human Rights in the Russian Federation, but in response they receive another lie and replies,” the GUR informs.
Recall that Russian conscripts are looking for ways to escape from the war.
