“according to messages from the officials seen by Reuters”

Ya just can’t get any more authoritative than second hand claims from anonymous sources via Reuters!

Along with the “Russians don’t have air for their tires”, “Russians don’t have gasoline.”, “Russians suffer from acute self-loathing”, “Russians are having an existential moral crisis”....it really never seems to end.

Officials in Voronezh(Russia) are asking local retailers to donate food, drinks, and cigarettes to National Guard troops now deployed in Ukraine. Requested not as a public show of support so much as basic logistical assistance for “performing combat tasks.”

The Russian soldiers crossed their border illegally. Give them citizenship and enlist them in the Ukrainian army and make them fight for Ukraine. 😁 Hey, why not?

Then all they have to do is get them across the border and to the various troop locations - without anyone stealing any of it and selling it for vodka or a ‘retirement fund’

Clearly a scam - the mighty Russian army will be done taking care of business and back home before the month is out.

Russian troops have been spotted wearing Ukrainian combat boots Talan. Apparently, they prefer Ukrainian products over their own items manufactured amid their gargantuan military budgets.
