Angry Families of Missing Russian Soldiers Want Answers From Putin
Wall Street Journal MSN ^ | 5/7/2024 | Ann M. Simmons, Kate Vtorygina

Natalia Kruglova last spoke to her husband, Pvt. Ivan Petrov, on Sept. 29. The Russian army conscript told Kruglova he had been ordered back to the front lines in southeastern Ukraine. Then he disappeared.

Kruglova wrote to her husband’s commanding officers, the Defense Ministry and even military prosecutors in search of news, but to no avail. Weeks later, the army declared Petrov missing but offered no explanation of what had happened to him.

“It’s as if no one owes you anything, no one cares,” Kruglova, 45, said in an interview from her home in the Russian far eastern city of Magadan.

Despite suffering two serious head injuries, including one from a blast wave that broke his jaw, knocked out his teeth and kept him out of service for weeks, Kruglova’s husband wasn’t allowed to return to their home in Magadan, she said.

Together for seven years, the couple spoke almost every day while Petrov, 41, a truck driver before the war, was deployed.

Their last conversation was tinged with foreboding.

“He wanted to go home,” said Kruglova, a civil servant, who has been on disability for the past decade after five surgeries on her spine. “He understood everything, understood that they wouldn’t let him leave there. He knew he wouldn’t come back.”

Cancer is caused by the suppression of toxic negative emotions; primarily anger, hate, resentment and grief. Suppression of toxic negative emotions increase stress hormone cortisol levels, which directly suppress immune system function.

It's all right there in the Google. Now send me your alter ego.

You have better access to his corpse than I do, considering you’re in Putin’s MyKraine. Be easy to cross the Russian border with some of your Zeepers. You can do it after you get off work tonight at the Zelensky suckfest boiler room call center.

Tell Putin to bury Lenin’s corpse. And to take down his red hammer and sickle flags.

Tell Russia to send “General 200” Syrskyi’s rotting crop of massacred Ukrainians back from Belgorod, so their wives and mothers can bury the pieces.

Ukrainian soldiers have been hammered from the rear logistical areas up to the front. Russia only attacks with infantry when the bombing has degraded the trench rats and bunker dwellers.

Yesterday Russia announced a new phase. The previous five months have resulted in 800-1000 KIA daily. In May until the end of this war Russia is aiming to kill 1,500 in heightened tempo bombing and ground operations. No Ukeainian mobilization can keep up.

Also, yesterday was the highest confirmed total kill count of Ukrainian solders which was 1,580k known KIA.

Russia has only been active in two of five front areas. This week will mark the beginning of active Russian operations on all five fronts.

Russia is almost ready to actually begin their Spring and Summer Offensive.

Ukraine will probably 600 sq km in first weeks, followed by Russian capture of all coastal areas and Odessa. The D’niper River will probably not hold Russia more than few weeks when they reach the east side.

Meanwhile, general sraff officers are attempting to kill de Furher in a repeat of NAZI misfortunes nearly 80 years after the WWII attemps.

Russia vows to deNaziFy NAZI Ukraine. NATO DID NA SI THAT COMING.
