“We’ve been told officially that we’ll go to the combat zone without training.” Mobilized Russian soldier's account

Mobilized Russian troops are being sent to the front line without training or health checks, according to sources of the Pervy Otdel human rights group.

A mobilized serviceman has submitted a video in which he says his regiment will be deployed in Kherson in just a few days.

“Hello, everyone, this is the 1st Armor Regiment speaking. We’ve been told officially that we’ll go to the combat zone without training. The commander of the regiment has confirmed it. We're off to Kherson on September 29. So... Think for yourselves. Make of it what you wish. No target practice, no theory – nothing at all,” said he.

The day before, Mediazona spoke to the wife of a mobilized Lipetsk resident, who shared that her husband’s regiment is being sent “to the front line with Donbas” after one day of training.
