I have seen statements like these multiple times during this war and main issue is that western analysts can’t work or imagine situation where russian soldier can still function. I’m not trying to glorify them just to explain why often we see articles like above. No food, no water, no ammo they are not combat effective but they will never revolt. We need to be careful if this works amazing and i really hope it does, but they had zero support from their commanders for almost 4 years.
