Russian military personnel once again demonstrate that cruelty and disregard for human rights are not unfamiliar to them. Putin's army commanders not only disrespect their opponents but also their soldiers. An example? Russians tied their soldier to a tree for complaining about the lack of equipment.

Biełsat reports on the case. A Russian conscript was tied to a tree and exposed to death by his commanders. The reason was an argument with his superiors. This is another example of the brutality of Vladimir Putin's army.

What did the mobilized Andrei Yeliseyenko do wrong? Biełsat journalists state that the conscript "avoided drinking alcohol," and he submitted a complaint to the command about the lack of equipment for his unit.

The reason for the disputes between him and the command was that the man did not drink alcohol, and the battery he led was not equipped with necessary gear. During an inspection, Andrei submitted all grievances, which further infuriated his superiors. Right afterward, he spent four hours (approx. 1.2 meters) tied to a tree - as stated in the report of the incident published on the platform X.

He stood for four hours. It was torture for the Russian conscript

A recording of the actions of Russian commanders appeared on independent Russian news channels. Biełsat reports that "shortly afterward, the place where the conscript was tied came under fire, but Andrei survived."

Russian soldiers who were taken captive by the Ukrainian army have repeatedly recounted that the command treats them "like cannon fodder." Reports appeared online of conscripts complaining about the lack of food on the front lines, inadequate sanitary conditions, and the problem of obtaining equipment. The situation published in the recording is another example of such conduct.
