In videos appearing on social networks, soldiers joining the Russian army after Putin’s “partial” mobilization are outraged by the condition of the equipment they receive.
One of the images shows a Kalashnikov assault rifle in a completely weathered condition, possibly stored during the Cold War.
Even before mobilization, the Russian army had problems with adequate supplies, and outdated T-55 tanks were recently sent to the battlefield.
This will surely increase even more the discontent that reigns in the ranks of the newly mobilized forces.
The question is how they will be able to counter the Ukrainian military, which is better equipped and logistically prepared to withstand Russian attacks every day.
We recall that Putin’s decision on “partial” mobilization was followed by protests in many Russian cities, and more and more people believe that this decision is a desperate move by the Russian president and an attempt to restore balance on the battlefield in Ukraine .
