The Russian army is so desperate for cannon fodder, not only are they recruiting disabled conscripts they are now throwing dishevelled “alcoholics” to fight in Ukraine.
The Russian armed forces has lost more than 1.3 million troops in almost four years of war and has had very little territorial gains.
Recruiters are hoodwinking alcoholics to join the Russian army to fight on the frontlines in what has been described as a “new generation” of so-called soldiers.
The recruits are hunched over, look like they’ve not slept in months and look pale sand sick and are struggling to stand up.

One said, “Me? They tricked me. I didn’t want….to sign up.”
The instructor barks back, “Then why the hell did you sign the contract? Did they beat you?”
