1/ It's a dog-eat-dog world in the Russian army: the Telegram channel Baza reports that the newly mobilised troops have been fighting off attempts by existing contract soldiers to rob them. Translation follows. ⬇️
2/ In a military unit near Moscow, contract servicemen wanted to take away some of the mobilised men's equipment and telephones. This did not work: the newcomers simply beat up the "oldtimers".
3/ The conflict between military men took place in a military unit in Alabino [possibly the Military Training Ground located there] where men subjected to mobilization are taken. The newcomers were not welcomed there with bread and salt.
4/ On the contrary, soldiers who were attached to the unit started demanding clothes and mobile phones from the newcomers. The newcomers did not tolerate such an attitude and responded to the extortion with brute force.
5/ A mass brawl broke out - according to "Baza" about 20 "granddads" [older soldiers] were beaten up. The situation really got out of hand: the beaten men managed to escape only by locking themselves in one of the unit's rooms. From there they called the police.
6/ First the military police arrived in Alabino, and then officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Only after that, the military managed to come to an agreement - none of them filed a report to the police in the end. /end
