Vladimir Putin (ordering) 'Publicly Executing' Own Soldiers Who Disobey Russian Leader's Orders In Ukraine

Vladimir Putin is accused of ordering his own military leaders to “publicly execute” Russian soldiers who disobey his commands in Ukraine, RadarOnline.com has learned.

The startling claims come as Putin’s war against Ukraine quickly approaches the one-year mark and as the Russian leader’s own forces bump heads with Russian mercenaries also fighting in Ukraine under mercenary chief Yevgeniy Prigozhin.

According to members of the Wagner Private Military Company recently captured by Ukraine, they reportedly witnessed their own members executed by Russian leaders.

"Those who disobey are eliminated – and it’s done publicly," one member of the Wagner Group said over the weekend.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, a majority of those fighting with the Wagner Group are Russian convicts offered freedom in exchange for fighting in Ukraine.

Even more surprising were reports the Wagner Group forces came under fire not only from rival Ukrainian troops, but also Russian troops positioned in the area.

"There are squadrons of liquidators…shelling began," the former inmate-turned-mercenary said. "One of the prisoners laid down and didn’t cover his own men.”

"The shelling stopped, he went back, and the boss shouted: 'Why didn’t you go forward?’” he continued. "And they killed him. The boss is killed if his team deserts."

Other inmates-turned-mercenaries are reportedly approaching human rights organizations in an effort to be returned to prison rather than continue fighting and facing execution from their own military leaders.

"Losses in so-called meat grinder assaults are said to be enormous, especially among convicts whose role is to reveal Ukrainian positions by advancing to draw their fire," said a Russian propagandist analyst named Kseniya Kirillova.

I was not arguing for whole of Ukraine and you know it. Regarding talking points I just love this way of degrading anything not fitting into your official narrative.

That’s not what you said, tovarisch. And, I don’t have to degrade what you say, because you are dim enough to degrade your own comments just by posting them.

Wow propaganda just spewed forth from the MSM. When did this start happening?

Wait, I remember....long before we needed an enemy and about the time when Hillary gave Putin the “Reset” button.

I’ve been embarrassed by my countries leaders before, but the FR crowd is “hooked on a line and sinker”. Like we can take Russia down like we did Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Vietnam, Korea....well we did stand down as the hordes laid waste to Libya for the helluvit while our elite grabbed some pilfered Gold bullion though.

If they refuse orders, of course he should execute them. As would our troops when they refuse to follow orders.

Just think how awesome it will be if we take him out, like some towel headed wearing Islamic terrorist. sarcasm off now..

What would Russias new leader do? Why worry about Iran having nukes? Russias next President will make the planners of the firebombing of Dresden look like pikers.

Is there really that many warmongers on Free Republic? Or just fools who think Russkies will fall like over-ripened fruit if we but flex? Think of how the US reacted after 9/11, and then add in true resolve. It is THEIR country, and I don’t care what Ukraine says. If they can defend it without dragging us into a WW 3, more power to them, but they cannot.
