russian Paratroopers Refusing to Go to Fight in Ukraine

russian paratrooper officers are refusing to participate in hostilities in Ukraine, so the command of the airborne forces of the occupying country has decided to appoint contract service members without officer ranks and experience of participation in hostilities to officer positions.

After the massive losses suffered by the russian paratroopers in combat clashes with Ukrainian defenders, the command of the airborne troops is at least partially trying to restore their morale and psychological state and combat capability. The main attention is given to units where more than 60 percent of the personnel were destroyed and units where the personnel are demoralized and refuse to continue their service.

The biggest problem for the occupiers is the mass refusal of the command staff of the airborne forces to participate in the war. Even contract soldiers, who were urgently assigned officer ranks, are refusing to take up posts from platoon leader to battalion commander, with subsequent departure to Ukraine.

The commission of the general staff of the occupying country is currently working at the airborne troops command. Its members were instructed to investigate each case of refusal and persuade the commanders to return to their units, promising them social benefits and government rewards.
