In the telephone calls that have been intercepted, a Russian soldier can be heard telling his mother that they have nothing to eat and they take the water out of the puddles. Some conversations that ‘The Gardian’ has published and that show Putin’s abandonment of his troops.
Calls between Russian soldiers and their loved ones reveal the reality of the war in Ukraine. After more than 200 days of war, the state of mind of some of them is on the ground. “Supplies suck, to be honest. Everything is screwed. We get water from the puddles, then we strain it to be able to drink,” one of them comments to his mother.
In addition, he insists that protesting is a mission Impossible. “It’s no use complaining. On television everything is very beautiful and in reality it is a real piece of shit,” she confesses.
In another call, a soldier tells his wife the terrible conditions in which they are. “I’m in a sleeping bag, all wet, coughing, fucked up. He’s let us all get slaughtered.”
Regarding the idea of give up and run away He recognizes that it is complicated because his indications are different. “They tell us not to back off. We have to hold out until they shoot at us.”
Some conversations in which they make it clear that they are not prepared for this conflict and that, although they have targets in front of them, they do not have ammunition to shoot. Now, they wonder where the missiles that Putin boasts about are.
The truth is that this is not the first time in which audios of soldiers complaining about this situation have leaked, a few months ago they could already be heard crossing out Putin as “crazy”. For his part, after the meeting with the high commandor, the Russian leader promises that there will be no lack of financial support and accuses NATO of using its full potential against Russia.
