< p _ngcontent-sc137="" class="news-annotation">Despite the short logistical reach, the grouping of the Russian consolidated troops in the Donetsk and Lugansk regions is experiencing a number of problems related to the supply of everything they need. The command of the occupying armies is desperately concentrating on the maintenance of the territories, but is not at all worried about the fate of the personnel.
According to Channel 24 sources in the Ukrainian special services, units of the Russian army, “chmobiks”, militants and those mobilized in the Donbass forcibly sent to war in recent weeks have been extremely suffering from a lack of everything necessary for the war. The Russian generals did not take care that their subordinates did not freeze in the trenches, nor that they did not suffer from hunger.
If before the start of the “campaign” the invaders in the Donbass were fully provided with everything necessary, then with the onset of problems for Russia during the war, this issue became more acute every week.
Forced to beg for food that people hide
- < The strikes inflicted by the Armed Forces of Ukraine with the use of long-range artillery, the lack of trucks and the general problem with logistics led to the fact that already in August, Russian troops in some areas of the Donbass and Luhansk regions began to feel hungry.
- At first, the invaders without remorse, they robbed the inhabitants of towns and cities, took away their food and products. However, subsequently, local residents began to massively refuse the occupiers, saying that all the supplies had run out. Therefore representatives of the Russian army began to conduct raids with searches in search of supplies.
- People who remained in the front-line settlements temporarily captured and destroyed by Russia began to hide food from the invaders in order to somehow survive themselves.
- In general, the life of civilians in the newly occupied territories of Donbass is simply terrible. Because the Russians “liberated” people from infrastructure, electricity, water, access to shops and the opportunity to go somewhere far away from the war. In addition, already in October, Ukrainians in the front-line and temporarily occupied cities of Donbass and Lugansk began to suffer from the cold.
- The Russian occupiers and other representatives of the invader troops strictly prohibited collecting firewood for owners of private houses. Like, they themselves need to somehow warm themselves.
It is precisely because of the total lack of food, as well as the unwillingness of the locals to share food with the invaders, that Russian soldiers are forced to offer people an exchange. “Vanki” bring civilians wooden boxes of weapons for heating, and instead they receive potatoes, vegetables, lard or something else edible.
Officers know about such relations between their subordinates and local residents, but they cannot do anything . Choosing between the order not to make life easier for civilians and the death of the Horde from starvation, sergeants, lieutenants and captains choose disobedience to the high command. h2>
Oddly enough, but the relative and partial relief of the provision of warm clothes, Putin's Horde received only after the appearance on the front line of partially mobilized. By robbing them. The state did not give the “Chmobiks” anything they needed – neither normal bulletproof vests, nor winter uniforms, nor a first aid kit. Therefore, they were forced to take out loans and buy everything they needed for themselves. But upon arrival at the front, the partially mobilized realized that valuable things needed to be shared. So they began to massively take away everything they came with.
However, the deriban of disenfranchised soldiers, of course, could not cover all the needs of the occupying troops. The canned food brought by the “chmobiks” does not reach the position, because the food is taken from them on the second or third front lines, and the equipment is still not enough for everyone – the mobilized bring one set of everything. So the life of Russians, militants and residents of Donbass forcibly sent to the front on the front line is extremely difficult even without counteroffensives of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. And in winter it will be even worse.
