Conscripted troops sent to fight for Russia in Ukraine have mutinied on camera, saying they have been sent to the frontlines without equipment, medicine or food.
In footage posted on Telegram, the soldiers - who claimed to be from the 113th rifle regiment of the so-called Donetsk People's Republic - say they have been fighting for months in 'hunger and cold' without proper kit or medical care.
Their commander says men with chronic medical conditions, who should have escaped the draft, have instead been sent into the midst of the fighting alongside carers and those with young children.
'The higher command interpret our complaints as sabotage,' he says. 'But what is there to be gained from sending your soldiers to die?'
The video emerged amid bitter and bloody fighting between Ukraine and Russia in Donbas, of which Donetsk is a part, though the unit in the video is thought to have been stationed near Kherson - an occupied city hundreds of miles to the south west.

Kherson has also been the scene of attacks by pro-Ukraine saboteurs operating partisan-style behind enemy lines.
Valery Kuleshov, a pro-Russian blogger, was shot dead in the area last month in his car after a reward of £15,000 was offered for the head of pro-Moscow officials.
Threats have been posted on social media, telephone poles, trees and walls.
'Russian occupiers and everyone who supports them. We are close, already operating in Kherson. Death awaits you all!' warned posters that appeared on the day of Kuleshov's execution.
Ukraine's flag also keeps appearing on buildings, along with the national colours of blue and yellow.

More mucusmaximucus Daily Mail hogwash.
And of course the first reply is from a Putin butt licker denying the video 🤣🤣🤣
The Russians may win the invasion, but they will lose the occupation. Partisans conducting guerilla attacks against an occupier can be brutal: No large scale operations, but hit-and-run tactics, stealth, sabotage...and revenge.
Same stuff as from Zelensky Zuckers.....
Every time the OP is posting something outrageous regarding the Russian forces, you know it is happening among the Ukrainian troops.
I don’t believe those videos coming from either side. Idiot Biden arsewipe. Videos like that are usually staged propaganda.
I believe there are troops on both sides tired of it all.
Is there any insurgency in the liberated areas? There are attempts to do low-key terror by the Ukrainian specops who are mostly busted because the locals report them to the Russians.
The British are the dumbest knobs on the planet.
WOW! So far....
- Putin has died
- Russia has run out of ammo/missiles
- Ukraine is winning the war
- 10,000,000 Russians are marching in the streets to end the special military operation
- The Azov battalions are not Naxi thugs
- Russia is losing a general a day
- Russia is losing a colonel every day
- Ukraine did not lose Mariupol
- The Ukraine military/Azovs are not laying down their arms and surrendering — they are only evacuating
- The Ukraine did not move into the east of the country in 2014 and bomb/slaughter 14,000 of their own citizens
Now if Russia continues to lose like this they will end up with the entire country — not just the eastern third they now occupy.
I’m sure there are more good stories, but that’s enough for this post.
“what is there to be gained from sending your soldiers to die?”
Glorious Leader Putin gets to stay in power for a few more years. Isn’t that worth it, comrade?
“Kherson has also been the scene of attacks by pro-Ukraine saboteurs operating partisan-style behind enemy lines.”
Impossible. All the pro-Russian FReepers laughed when I predicted a bloody occupation for the Russians and told me that everyone in Donetsk loved the Motherland and their liberators.
“Is there any insurgency in the liberated areas?”
No, there is no insurgency in the areas where Ukraine has kicked the Russian invaders out.
It’s been debunked already - just another propagada piece.
I am obviously talking about areas under Russian control. Ukrainian areas are a different matter, they simply kill real or imaginary suspected opposition.
It hasn’t even started yet. But it will.
Interesting statement made by Arestovich (Zelensky’s presidential adviser):
“The national idea of Ukraine is to lie to yourself and others as much as possible.
Because if you tell the truth, everything will collapse.”
Like in Donbas and Crimea?:)
Any Zelensky people here that does not believe that?
I am frankly at a loss reading some of the posts of Ukraine supporters here actually getting downright nasty in their “if you don’t support Zelensky and Ukraine you are a Putin Puffer, etc.” hate. Actual hate......you can probably name three or four of them. I know I can.....
Not my dog, not my hunt and what they say doesn’t matter. They are on the side of the MIC, MSM and Biden.
