Despite the loss of more than 800,000 infantry soldiers killed and wounded in the first 3 years of its broader war opposite to Ukraine, the Russian army still controlled a first -line force of at least 600,000 infantry soldiers in Ukraine and Western Russia. This is enough other people to give the armies of the Russian crusade a merit of hard work on the Ukrainian forces in all the largest sectors of the broader war.
But that means that Kremlin has no problem generating new troops. At least a desperate Russian command, the 20th Army combined weapons and formed attack teams formed by wounded on foot, adding injured men who walk with crutches, and sent them to war with tragic predictable effects.
Several months ago, there are rumors that some Russian commanders ordered men injured in action. Perhaps the first transparent evidence of “crutch battalions” gave the impression of social networks last week. A Ukrainian drone knew a largely attack organization composed of men in crutches in a position position to attack Ukrainian positions around Pokrovsk, a castle city in eastern Ukraine, which is the existing position of the Russian Russian effort east.
The impressive drones have made a quick task of the attackers, massacing them without mercy despite their injuries and their prospective and sincere limited.
What can have an initial view as an anomaly, a strange loss of life that could order through a ruthless Russian commander, is now more systemic. Or just before Tuesday, a Russian soldier from 20 CAA recorded a wandering walk of walking that is placed for an attack on the forests out of the Pokrovsk doors. “The man uses crutches for a mission,” the soldier rang in the video, translated usefully through Estonia Wartranslate. “What’s that?”
The proliferation of crutch battalions through at least one Russian war front opposite to Ukraine denies the great duration of the Russian force in Ukraine. Yes, there are 600,000 Russians in the east and south of Ukraine, as well as around the small Ukrainian troops that stand out occupy in the west of the Oblast Kursk of Russia. No, all those 600,000 infantry soldiers cannot fight.
Stress in the Kremlin hard work formula only grows as the expansion of the Ukrainian drone body, and the loss of 15,000 combat cars through Russia, forces Russian commanders to maintain their few modern tanks and fight and fight Send cars and send the infantry, instead. , on the foot and without much support.
The infantry attacks worked for the first time. Individual infantry men extend over the rugged terrain are more difficult objectives for omnipresent drones of Ukraine than mechanized equipment with giant deposits and fight against cars that are easy to double.
The Russian regiments “increasingly” check a vehicle assault “, the result is zero,” recently deplored a Russian blogger in a letter translated through Wartranslada. But “the children’s account, with artillery and drones, slowly, but actually takes the tree line after the tree line. “
The infantry position is surprising. Russian daily patients have greater, while Russian doctrine has evolved to announce vehicle infantry. According to General Oleksandr Syrskyi, the most productive Ukrainian commander, Russia killed 434,000, adding 150,000 dead in 2024. He was more dead and injured Russian troops than in the last two years.
Ukrainian losses are much lower: 43,000 dead and 370,000 injured in general since February 2022, near Ukranian. Volodymyr Zelensky said in December.
Infantry attack that cars operates a Russian active element (workforce), however, the dangers waste this asset for relatively modest territorial profits that Russians have registered in the year beyond the year.
People are a renewable resource, but temporary or without problems. The fact that more Russians box in the war against crutches is a transparent sign that the Kremlin spent its human resources faster than renewing them.
