Russia has acknowledged for the first time that it doesn't have enough equipment for mobilized soldiers in its war against Ukraine.

Peskov said a newly-formed council created by Putin is working on resolving problems with equipment. "Vigorous measures taken to rectify the situation are already yielding the first positive results," he said.

Just STOP already!
Enough
Russia/Russians GO HOME
No one really knows how many have been mobilized.

That is probably reverend mama. Notice how nothing bad ever happens to Ukraine? LOL
I don’t mind sharing my bugs with either side though.
Hey Joe knows how to call ‘em. He is a real Commander In Cheap.
Plenty of rocks on the ground.
It’s rumored the number is 500,000 mobilized. That’s more Russian serfs than boots for them, though.
LOL!
It’s all been stolen and sold.

“Putin passes off the blame for his botched mobilization to “regional authorities.” What a loser.”
The graft and corruption of suppliers and senior officers are the most likely culprits.
Paraphrasing the Japanese camp commander in “The Bridge on the River Kwai,” those conscripts are being told, “Be happy in your work for the Motherland.”
