In Yakutsk, wounded soldiers are being forcibly detained and are set to be sent back to the war.

This was reported to ASTRA by representatives of the "Free Yakutia" Foundation. According to their information, 28 soldiers are refusing to return to the front, and they are being held in Yakutsk's pre-trial detention center.

Violence and torture are being used against them, the foundation's representatives claim. Additionally, they are prohibited from using the toilet — instead, the soldiers have been given a plastic bottle and a bag.

The detained soldiers are also being forcibly subjected to the song "I Am Russian" by Shaman.

Russian history can be summarized with 5 words:
"And then it got worse".

What's the point of sending traumatized soldiers back to the battlefield? Aren't they a liability?

They aren't too much of a liability if they are used to de-mine fields, locate artillery or if they catch a drone or two.

Russian warfare is about mass and it doesn't take a skilled person to walk across a field.
