  1. A Russian commander has allegedly been heard ordering his own men to open fire on his own men in an intercepted call.

    The Ukrainian military intelligence agency, the Main Directorate of Intelligence (HUR), released the recording on April 5 in which a furious officer is captured demanding: “F*** the 55th, shoot them, that’s the battalion commander’s order, shoot them.”

    This command apparently stemmed from frustration after their positions were allegedly exposed by the 55th unit, another Russian outfit in the vicinity.

    While the audio’s authenticity hasn’t been independently verified by The Kyiv Independent, it joins a growing body of evidence suggesting turmoil and ineffective command within Russian forces engaged in the conflict with Ukraine.

  2. ruzzian culture has been this way since stalin was in charge and putin is simply sticking to it.

  3. Yet…. Ukraine still isn’t making big victorious strides…

  4. that “growing body” might be the inverse of a shrinking body of actual equipment.

    Roughly at least 40% of all equipment russia had accumulated was actually produced outside of vodkastan. Everyone easily grasps that is still a lot equipment but that body must shrink cause of missing capability of replenishment of former 40year stock pile production. When someone draws conclusions of imaginary replenishment then one should be very vary of misunderstanding where exactly those capabilities should exist in meaningful size. We can assume ru uses former soviet union statistics to brag themselves into believing the source has no bottom.

    Likely even the ruzzians believe their own myth and run right into reality. Therefor the question could rather be when does it become inevitable combat ineffective including blame game between each other.

    Prighozin was already one example, who become p*ssed for lacking support or rather lacking material and left behind as grinder grinch to feed the men eater machine as solution to its ineffectiveness.

  5. Turmoil and ineffective command… We have been hearing this, sort of stuff for best part of 3 years and yet the russia troops keep fighting..

    They are more scared of their own peopke than Ukrainian troops

  6. Movie………Enemy at The Gates………was WW2, Russians told raw recurits….attack in mass, if you turn back we will shoot you…………and they did.

    It’s how insane The Russian Leadership is……..

  7. Maybe that should be the general order effective immediately that all Ruzzian troops shoot as many other Ruzzian troops as possible so saving Ukraine the time and trouble of doing it…👍

    Sounds like a great plan.
