You may be right, but I really can't see any other reason why any nation should be this desperate for mercenaries if they still trust in the numbers of their army.

Illegal recruitment of soldiers of different nationalities, reservists call up without proper training and the use of another nation's army and weapons reeks of desperation. This should be Ukraine not the mighty Russia cheesy
guy,they are makin themselves ready to fight the whole eu....

nobody fights wars like this,take territories and just defend it than conquer the whole place....

war is not always about how you think it will be in the beginning, see how Israel has been struggling against ordinary hamas militant in Gaza for a year now and yet they couldn't defeat hamas with all their advance tech and military capability plus US total support imagine if Israel mistakenly enter into a fight with iran that has more capability than Iran that will be a total disgrace for Israel, ordinary tiny Gaza is still giving Israel headache till today
Hamas , Hezbollah and Houthis , I tag them "3H " terrorist organization. Iran owns all 3 and more in Irag , so what are you saying about Iran.
How many disgrace has Israel not dealth with Iran , infact till now Iran is still lobbying against an Israeli response which actually will be devastating to Iran due to high Precision weapons involved.

can you share the link where Iran told you that they are lobbying against Israel retaliation?has Israel defeated hamas with no AD and no any sophisticated weapons for a whole year they have been fighting them? Whats the number of Hamas fighters in that tiny Gaza that Israel is finding it difficult to defeat with all their sophisticated with the full support of US weapons and US soldiers? Have Israel soldiers rescued their hostages?

[quote author=Speeding1 post=132539346][/quote]if Hamas have gone like you claimed they wouldn't have killed idf commander few days ago,if they have gone Israel soldiers would have rescued their hostages in that tiny Gaza since last year.

why didnt they run to ukraine people....??
It's obvious no one read the article, headline's a bit misleading. They didn't necessarily run away, they were abandoned at an outpost with clear instructions or food. So after their resources depleted they had to move.

Putin have been using mercenaries instead of Russian soldiers to fight the war in Ukraine
Three of you shouldn't be commenting on this Section, You are all not intelligent enough to comment here, go to Children's section to comment.

Russia like other developed countries like USA, UK etc use mercenaries for wars outside their territories if the need be because it is cost effective.

Too many kids on this forum.

Putin has made a mistake.
At 75, he should be resting in the private villas
and be offering advice to the younger ones.
This KGB life has affected the man's thinking.
Uncle put., when are you going to rest?
You need to study:
Hitler
Sadam,
Osama
Gadafi
Idiamine
Abacha
Mobutu
Samuel Do

Israel can finish gaza in 3wks but with high humanitarian catastrophe,it is not easy fighting with militants who use children as human shields....just imagine where hamas,hezbollah built their terrorist structures:under hospitals,schools,mosques,UNWRA office,close to UN,red crescent offices...separating d wheat from d chaff is not easy my brother.

South Korea was right after all. Russia is just trying to use the arrest to cover their shame after South Korea exposed them.

Ukrainian troops increasingly abandoning posts – El Pais

Ukrainian servicemen are increasingly refusing to follow orders and fleeing their positions, accusing their leadership of assigning them suicide missions, the Spanish newspaper El Pais reported on Monday, citing several Ukrainian officers.

The outlet claimed that soldiers from four brigades fighting near the besieged settlement of Kurakhovo in Russia’s Donetsk People’s Republic have expressed their opinion that “the future of the war is bleak for their interests because there are not enough replacements.”

“Why are we retreating? Because we have no rotations, we don’t rest, we are demoralized,” one officer told the outlet, adding that there is a growing problem of Ukrainian soldiers fleeing their positions.

“I had a friend, we called him England. He fought the entire war on the front line, in Robotino, Soledar, Kherson... He was exhausted, he couldn’t take it anymore and the commanders didn’t give him a break. A few days ago he left, just like that,” the officer said.

A Ukrainian sergeant who goes by Churbanov also told the Spanish outlet that the shortage of soldiers had become the biggest problem facing the Ukrainian military, noting that servicemen often have to spend three months in their positions without rest or rotation.

Another serviceman, identified as Alexander, who serves in the Territorial Defense Forces (TRO), also told El Pais that at one point the 116th TRO brigade near Kurakhovo staged a mass rebellion and refused to follow orders. After that, the whole brigade was supposedly transferred to Sumy Region, from where Kiev launched its incursion into Russia’s Kursk Region, according to the officer.

A source within Russia’s security services has also confirmed to the TASS news agency that Ukraine’s 116th TRO brigade had indeed been transferred to participate in the Kursk incursion as punishment for its mutiny. According to a source cited by the outlet, Kiev was trying to “somehow correct the situation in Kursk Region at the expense of the already demoralized Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers.”

Alexander also told El Pais that there had been a high-profile case earlier this month where 100 soldiers of the 123rd TRO Brigade abandoned their positions near Ugledar several days before the city was captured by Russian forces. The officer explained that they did this to “announce that without sufficient training and weapons they were being assigned to a suicidal defense,” according to El Pais.

Moscow has long characterized the hostilities in Ukraine as a US-initiated proxy war against Russia in which Ukrainian soldiers were being expended as “cannon fodder” with the complicity of their government.

You make me laugh. The usa went into Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya without the confirmation of the UN. If Russia is weak, let the USA enter Russia without no veto vote.
