A Russian soldier was recorded furiously criticizing President Vladimir Putin and Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, using expletives and questioning the purpose of the war, exclaiming 'F**king Putin, Shoigu, b**ch! What the f**k is going on?' Russian recruits are outraged after being told they will be sent to the front lines, despite not having seen a rifle during their two-week training, leading them to accuse their commanders of lying. Spokesman Colonel Olexander Shtupun reported an increasing number of Russian servicemen, especially from the 1st Army Corps, refusing to participate in assault operations and surrendering in 'whole groups' due to 'inhumane commanders.' These claims are supported by video evidence, including footage showing Russian soldiers rallying against their 'lying commanders.' Contrasting these reports, the Russian Ministry of Defense asserts that Ukrainian forces are retreating and abandoning their positions in the Lugansk republic amid ongoing Russian ground operations.
