It has long been rumored that Russia is executing its own soldiers; deserters and those disobeying orders.
A young soldier, who identifies himself with full name, military number tag, and location at the frontline, now tells the barbaric story from the trench on the battlefield.
“…the situation is difficult. My own people want to nullify me, to shoot me,” he tells.
The 5 minutes long video-recording aimed for his girlfriend was first posted on Telegram and later spread across social media this weekend. The Barents Observer is not identifying the soldier or his fellow colleague now fighting in the front line of Russia’s battlefield in occupied Ukraine.
The beatings will continue until morale improves
