Andrei Nikiforov, a lawyer from St Petersburg, was one of the hundreds of thousands of Russians mobilised since last month to hold the frontlines in his country’s faltering war in Ukraine.
On 25 September he received his call-up papers. By 7 October, just two weeks later, he was dead.
“We don’t know what happened,” said Alexander Zelensky, the head of the Nevsky Collegium of Lawyers, of which Nikiforov was a member. Zelensky and a member of Nikiforov’s family confirmed his call-up and death. “All we have is a date and a place.”
That place was Lysychansk, one of the most dangerous spots near the frontlines.
The first coffins are now returning to Russia from Ukraine, bringing the remains of ordinary Russians who at first were promised a quick “special military operation” and now have been drafted to go and fight in a war. Their deaths may mark another inflection point for Russia in this conflict, where mismanagement has led to Kremlin infighting and at least half a million men have been drafted or fled their homes to avoid it.

Hey Ivan, why don’t Russian tanks run on vodka?
Because the crew drank it all.
Did you here about the Russian soldier who killed 14 and wounded another 23?
Yeah, and that was just training camp.
In Stalin’s day, Russian troops were ordered into battle with only half armed with weapons.
Nowadays, Russian troops are ordered into battle with only half wearing uniforms.
In the Russian army, troops complain, the food is poison and we’re not given enough.
What is the goal in life of a Russian soldier?
To find an adapter so they can plug in their Ukrainian washing machine.
Lol
So a Russian lawyer died? looking, looking, searching or the downside. My givearip meter has flatlined.
How much do you get paid for each post on behalf of the leftists in the US?
Your fiends. Pelosi,..et al
Blame Putin.
You’re absolutely correct, Putin is a dictator and a killer.
I don’t consider people on the Left to be a friend, and Putin still stinks. His personal war against Ukraine makes him look like a fool. His vaunted army is junk.
...yet you post/spout articles supporting the leftist narrative.
