Riot Near Svatove: 200 Mobilized Russian Soldiers Flee Frontline

Before being sent to their positions, the Russian soldiers were allowed to shoot only three times.

A large group of Russians subjected to mobilisation have started a riot in Luhansk region. The unit fled from their forward positions.

The incident was reported by the influential Russian VChK-OGPU Telegram channel, citing relatives of the soldiers.

The mobilized drafted into the Russian occupation army at the end of September were deployed in one of the "hottest" sections of the front near Svatove.

The conscripts were moved to the front line after "accelerated military training", during which they were "given to shoot only three times".

The soldiers were deployed near the village of Kilomiychikha without being provided with food, uniforms or even weapons and ammunition. The command staff was absent. They starved for almost three weeks under heavy AFU fire, after which they rioted.

"On 01.11.22 at 4:00, the mobilised decided to evacuate without command and without ammunition to Svatove," the resource reported.

According to it, the mobilized were not allowed into the occupied town.

The command tried unsuccessfully to force them to return to the front line, answering that the supply of the group is "not their business".

The rebellious Russian Federation soldiers are now sheltering in the forest belt near Svatove. The command is threatening them with reprisals.

"The command came and threatened: if they don't go to the front line, a car is coming to take them to the detention centre, but before the detention centre something will happen to the car. That's what they said," the resource reported the mobilized men as saying.
