Inside Russia, anguish as men are enlisted to fight in Putin’s war

A look inside Russia, where men are being conscripted as part of Putin’s “partial mobilization” to fight in the war in Ukraine, shows fear, grief and anger.

This is not young men MAKING the ultimate sacrifice for their country. This is young men BEING sacrificed for the legacy of one man.

Imagine going to fight for someone you don’t like against someone you don’t hate.

Just like Vietnam, so many young men forced to fight and many lost their lives. I feel for these men and their families. I pray for all of them.

Rich man’s war.

[@cargofun200]

Rich man’s War. Poor man’s fight. That remains unchanged.

My heart breaks for them all. Someone please take him out of power. This isn't right in any way.

[@jomauffray416]

So sad for all these men that have no training my heart hurts for all those family's

[@need100k]

All for one man's ego. I'm surprised nobody has put him down yet.

For any Russian men that are having second thoughts, remember you're fighting for the rights of a handful of oligarchs to buy a 3rd or 4th super-yacht.

So many young Armenian boys and girls, men and women alike are going through this exact situation as well in Armenia. All dying to protect our land and families from a possible genocide by the Azerbaijani and Turkish soldiers.

If we thought morale was low with the Russian troops, imagine these citizens who have no desire to do this?

[@archstanton6441]

Funny, they didn't complain about the rape, murder, torture, invasion......but now that it's touching their lives, it's a different story.

[@vectorhold6489]

imagine being forced to fight a war with no honor.

[@Rain-yh9ws]

This makes me angry & truly sad for these people & their families!! Imagine being forced to kill people you have no anger towards or being forced to fight for a man you see as evil? This is Absolutely... heartbreaking. I would say what i wish for this maniac but it would be deleted

[@karlvonbahnhof6594]

I'm Czech, let's be honest and call things how they are, Russia is a fascist country, Putin's Russia is doomed, there is only hope for Russia, Alexey Navalny

[@davidbrooks960]

Months ago I heard civilian people being interviewed in Russia about this war and most said they were ok with it. I wonder what they are saying now 🤔

[@geirgemallon1648]

So sad. As a father of two sons, I feel wht this people feel ❤️

[@cartwheelsmcgee428]

Those poor people and family's. No one wants war, we are past this
