    Can someone explain why they all took a rest so out in the open like this? I would expect them to be aware of their enemy using thermal imaging to locate their positions, like both sides likely do, so why dig a person-sized crater and sleep?

      The Russian war machine isn’t geared for a reduction in casualties or losses. They’re likely without intel, options, etc. A good chunk of them are migrants Russia has imported under the promise of citizenship and work, only to conscript to the front lines.
