The number of “two hundred” contract soldiers is rapidly increasing in the Russian occupation forces, which is the responsibility of their commanders. They are getting their soldiers on drugs, confiscating bank cards, and forcing them to pay for the “right to life.” Those who disagree are simply “zeroed out.”

Instead of children, drugs
The Russian women’s calculation that thanks to the men who voluntarily decided to become killers and signed a contract, they would live comfortably did not come true. The newly-minted occupiers are massively spending money on drugs instead of sending it to their families. And this is not some “Ukrainian IPsO”, but the real realities.
And here is a vivid example of this. A wounded ROV soldier, whom the battalion commander decided to send on a mission instead of to the hospital, recorded a video in which he addressed his father. The occupier told him that the battalion commander with the call sign “Ruskiy” and the platoon commander “Baron” were involved in selling drugs, and the UAV operator “Khoma” helped them with the delivery. As a result, “the boys spend money on drugs instead of sending it to their families.”
The occupier asked the father to share the video if he stopped communicating. Considering everything, that’s what happened.
According to OBOZ.UA’s interlocutor in Ukrainian intelligence, what the Russian occupier said is not an exception, but a system.
“By getting their soldiers on drugs, Russian commanders are killing two birds with one stone. Of course, they make good money from the criminal trade, and on top of that, a drug addict is ready to do anything for a dose – even to carry out a deliberately deadly combat mission. Commanders don’t care about losses at all; if they die, they’ll send other “meat,” says the officer.
Any attempts by the occupiers’ wives to “get theirs” are mostly unsuccessful. But those who get hooked on drugs in the war zone usually don’t live long, so their families can “get rich” after receiving “cargo 200”. But even that isn’t so smooth – payments are delayed indefinitely.
Signed a contract? Give me the money!
Extortion, beatings, and threats of “zeroing out” have become commonplace in the Russian army. The other day, a video appeared on social media , where the occupier Yegor Korotky spoke about what was happening in the 164th Motorized Rifle Regiment.
According to him, at the training ground, his bank card, passport, and military ID were taken away from him, and contract payments were withdrawn in favor of his colleagues with the call signs “Uncle” and “Odesa”, whom he accused of violence and “zeroing out”. Korotky said that he was severely beaten for refusing to pay. This happened to other “fighters” as well.
After filing complaints, he began to receive threats, including at the hospital, which forced him to leave, fearing for his life. Korotky is currently detained by the military commandant’s office in Krasnodar, where his statements and reports about his refusal to return to the unit are simply ignored.
Another striking example is what happened to 50-year-old Muscovite Alexei Grigoriev. By the way, you can’t call it anything other than the law of karma.
The father of two children worked at the capital’s water utility, received a decent salary. Beloved wife, well-established life. He took custody of his 10-year-old nephew, whose parents died last year. It would seem – live in peace, but no: Grigoriev simply “rushed to the SVO”. For three years, his wife restrained him, but in the end he went to Magadan – there the one-time payment for signing a contract with the Russian Ministry of Defense is 2.6 million rubles (almost 1.4 million UAH).
He was sent to the occupied part of the Donetsk region. And less than a month later, his family was handed a notice that their brother and husband “died of heart failure.”
There were many inconsistencies where this happened. In the end, with great difficulty, the occupant’s family found out that the political officer ordered Grigoriev to give up his bank card and demanded his PIN code from her. He was beaten for two days and eventually killed. At first, they wanted to simply throw the body into the landing, but two of Grigoriev’s colleagues turned out to be unwitting witnesses to the incident. Fearing that they would be “zeroed out”, they gave chase.
Initially, the deceased Grigoriev was listed as missing, but eventually a report of natural death was issued.
“They (Russian commanders. – Ed.) kill their soldiers right in their own unit, they destroy them even faster than Ukrainian drones,” complained the occupier’s widow Iryna.
According to her, she had previously heard stories about extortion and abuse in the Russian army, but before her husband’s death, she “didn’t really believe it”: they said, not much was written about it. Now there are no doubts left.
As we can see, concluding a contract with the defense ministry of an aggressor country is practically a guaranteed departure to the afterlife. And often thanks to Russian commanders.
Knowing mafia land and the russians, it’s not difficult to believe what this report is claiming.
How not to run an army.Do the morons in the kremlin really believe that these subhumans can take all of Ukraine? There is not enough men in mafia land to take anyewhere near all of Ukraine.
The shithole will collapse well before it takes even a third of Ukraine.
The US might not be far behind it.
Once again, this foccusser becomes an asshole piece of puke with the stupid comment of hate for the USA.
No one hates the US, little guy, we hate the one who has made the White House into his own private mafia den.
