1/ Very unhappy Russian troops along the Dnipro river in the Kherson region say they are living in terrible conditions, eating nettles, drinking water from shellholes, and living under constant threat from Ukrainian drones which have cut off their supplies of food and water. ⬇️

2/ The difficulties facing the Russians along the Dnipro have previously been highlighted by soldiers complaining that they are being sent to their deaths in futile attempts to seize swampy islands in the Dnipro delta.

3/ In a recently published video, a soldier from an unidentified unit shows a plastic bottle of filthy water that is all he has to drink in his riverside position and complains:

"Problems with water, with food, fuck it, problems with everything, fuck!"

4/ "They can’t fucking deliver anything, fuck! Fuck, the sky is all theirs, fuck! Everything is fucked up, fuck! There's no forest, fuck! Over there is the Dnipro! Over there is the Dnipro, fuck! They're shooting, fuck it, all the time."

5/ The soldier in the video says that he and his comrades have gone without food for several days due to supplies being unable to reach them, and are instead eating nettles and drinking water from shellholes:

6/ "Here, I decided to cook some food, gathered a little bit of nettles, fuck, we fucking picked them, fuck! There’s fucking nothing to eat, fuck!

7/ "Here’s some water, fuck, from a puddle, swamp shit, fuck, who the fuck knows [what's in it], there was a little bleach, we fucking added it, fuck!"

8/ His problems highlight Ukraine's dominance with drones, which is an issue for the Russians across the front lines. Similar dominance in the Donetsk region has slowed the Russian advance to a crawl and is causing huge Russian losses. /end
