An intercepted phone call between a frustrated Russian soldier and his mother sheds light on the deteriorating conditions for Russian troops on the frontline in Ukraine. The soldier revealed the harsh reality of being on the frontlines, describing days of pouring rain, lack of sleep, and inadequate living conditions. The intercepted call indicates a growing trend of Russian troops expressing a desire to leave the military and abandon the war in Ukraine.

In the call, the soldier tells his mother that people are leaving, and when asked if they are running away, he confirms, stating they have endured five days of rain with no sleep. The soldier expresses frustration about living in challenging conditions with leaks, lack of sleep, and insufficient food. The mother warns him that leaving amounts to desertion, but the soldier remains defiant, suggesting that if they aren’t allowed to leave in December, they will go away on their own.

The intercepted call aligns with concerns about the morale and well-being of Russian soldiers facing a harsh winter in Ukraine, exacerbated by inadequate equipment and living conditions. The intercepted call and President Putin’s recent admission of “problems with equipment” highlight the challenges Russia is facing on the ground. The soldier’s account underscores the impact of these challenges on troop morale and readiness.

President Putin, while acknowledging issues with equipment, has vowed to continue striking Ukrainian energy infrastructure, despite criticism for leaving millions without essential services. The intercepted call and Putin’s recent remarks offer insights into the difficulties Russian forces are encountering and the potential consequences for the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
