"It's some kind of plague, it destroys everything": a soldier spoke about the brutality of the Russian army

Deputy battalion commander of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Dmytro Hlushchenko, stated that the Russian army's method of action is to move forward and die, saying goodbye to life even before the assault begins, according to Politeka.

He spoke about this on the program "Dialogues" with Ruslan Bortnyk.

"I always say that we're dealing with a nation of necromancers. If we want to live, they, for some reason, want to die. Maybe their lives over there are so miserable that they simply don't value them. But they seem to have some kind of specific egregore, something savage – it's a nation of necromancers. We've seen it with our own eyes and are shocked every time by how easily they die," Hlushchenko said.

According to him, his battalion once helped repel an enemy assault by motorcyclists – the whole thing was over in half an hour, and around 10 people were taken prisoner. Two days later, he came across a video on the internet featuring those same Russians just before the assault. In the video, he said, they mention being sent to storm a certain position and say things like, "If we get killed, send our regards to our children."

He notes that the soldiers were about 20–22 years old and were consciously saying goodbye to their kids before going into the assault – and such motorcyclists come wave after wave. The question arises, the soldier says – what are they even doing here? Who exactly are they liberating? What Nazis did they see in Ukraine? None of it makes any sense.

"They've always fought like this. If you read about Napoleonic wars, it's the same story. All their wars – just madness. First of all, they die in droves, without counting each other. And there's this piggish attitude towards everyone – toward civilians, toward themselves. There's never been a more brutal, more senselessly brutal army. I don't even want to try to make sense of it all. I understand that our task is simply to stop it, because if this continues, we have no future. You can’t live with this. It's like some kind of plague – it destroys everything," Hlushchenko emphasizes.
