1/ Russian vehicle logistics have virtually collapsed in frontline areas due to the constant threat of drones, forcing soldiers to walk tens of kilometers to obtain fuel, food, water and medical supplies. A first-hand account gives an insight into the extreme danger they face. ⬇️

2/ As previously reported, transporting supplies and evacuating the wounded is now largely done on foot (or, famously, by donkeys) in an area about 20 km deep behind the front lines in Ukraine. Anything that moves is attacked by drones.

3/ Men have to walk across open fields with no concealment or ability to evade drone attacks, leaving them very vulnerable. The Russians constantly take casualties just to keep their front lines supplied.

4/ As warblogger Anatoly Radov puts it: "The guys tell me, we have two 200s [dead] and five 300s [wounded], and this is in one area. Considering that this is daily, everyone marching to Lviv, personal fuck. I don't know how it will all end..."

5/ A frontline Russian soldier who runs the 'Groundhog Day' Telegram channel describes a resupply trip that he undertook on 22 March:

"Today it was my turn to go after all sorts of things.

We left, the three of us, at eleven in the morning."

6/ "Running, with a plate of body armor hitting our chins painfully, with a rag "hump" dangling behind us... A knee-deep trench – and that was done. A sprint of a hundred meters according to the map – and into a hole. We waited, listened... Jumped on.

7/ "A hundred there, a hundred here, phantom drones buzzing in our ears – and almost at the finish line, the drone turned out to be no phantom at all. I rolled under some burnt equipment, my partner pretended to be a bush – he got into the very heart of the thorns, the bastard.

8/ "We sit, waiting for a guide – nobody knows where to go next. About fifteen minutes later we joined a second group and sat down in cover. A very exciting activity - filling a backpack to the hum of a rotary-winged beast! We had fun for about two hours.

9/ "Running again. Again in the first pair and again, a damned waiting drone, damn him. Using morale and willpower, I reach the trench, dive into it and hide in the shelter to the disgusting screech of a kamikaze drone taking off about fifty meters away.

10/ "And so it goes for the whole day. We return back when it is already twilight. Sweaty, lathered, eyes bulging... They shared what they had brought without us. Of course, no one was left empty-handed – all of us." /end
