The Russian command in the Pokrovsk sector is sending wounded soldiers who can barely move on crutches to attack Ukrainian positions.
The video of the assault was published by the Khortytsia operational and strategic group of troops.
‘An occupant, leaning on a stick, tried to storm towards the positions of our defenders in the Pokrovske direction, but confidently moved forward.
More and more often, Spartan aerial reconnaissance spotted wounded enemy attack aircraft limping towards our positions with sticks or on homemade crutches,’ the statement said.
The military suggests that such attack aircraft are motivated not so much by orders as by the fear of being killed by their own command.
‘Their commanders are giving them an ultimatum: either you go into battle or you will be killed by your own men,’ the statement said.
