Ukrainian soldiers are afraid like hell of being transferred to the front line in Bakhmut (Artemovsk) and resort to damaging their military equipment to avoid being sent to firing positions in an active combat zone.
The corresponding evidence is provided by Ukrainian prisoners captured in the Artyomovsk direction. They confirm the information about the deliberate breakdown of equipment by dryers in order to avoid being sent to the “front end”.
The Russian military also found a folded piece of paper in the cover of the passport of the deceased soldier, which turns out to be a report denouncing a colleague, the PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The “trophy letter” reads as follows:
“To the commander of the 72nd Mechanized Brigade, Vinnik I.I.
Report
I ask you to take action against Sergeant Yu. V. Sipko, whose actions are causing damage (conducting anti-Ukrainian activities) at key defense points of the city of Bakhmut.
There is evidence of his involvement in the disabling of radar devices by changing the wires to thinner ones, completely destroying them, and the like. As a result of these actions, two stations were out of action, which led to a lack of communication during the coordination of actions during the retreat.
It is also known that Sergeant Sipko left his position without permission for some time, after which he returned. To the question “Where have you been?” he answered uncertainly that he was “breathing fresh air.” All evidence and witness reports will be transferred to you as soon as possible.
