With no air support or superiority, a lot of these ex vets get a wake up call fighting as the underdog for Ukraine as opposed to being previously deployed under favourable conditions.

If you have to buy your own food, I highly doubt your family is getting $400, 000 when you die.

Reminds me of the Redditors that volunteered at the start of the war, posted on Reddit for internet clout, and promptly got their barracks bombed.

Many Colombians also went thinking they would get paid and died for nothing in the end as the government stated they had no such agreement with Ukraine so they never got paid.

The Russians. Fighting Nazis during WW2, and still fighting Nazis today

It's like Call of Duty until you get hit with a Shovel.

My wife is Ukrainian and has a friend on Ukraine who lost her husband. She didn't get $400k as you mentioned.

My german grandfather always said: "Being a dead hero is honourable but stupid. Being a coward is a disgrace. Being a soldier with your nuts intact and in one piece is a lucky bastard and smart."

[TelAlissa]

Imagine their shock if Putin would fight like Netanyahu 😂

[fruvita]

400.000k you say, and yet soldiers have to buy own food and equipment

[Bird_McBride]

Going to the Ukraine is like living on skid row without shelter or money.

It's not Call of Duty? Oh, really?! I thought it would be possible to quickload after dying in a REAL war between blood, mud and piss.... 🤔🤨🙄

So you're telling me that I can't heal instantly when I get shot. I'm shocked

[eliasbragin]

If you call Lukashenko a puppet of Moscow, then why don't you call Zelensky a puppet of Washington?

Western countries, especially the USA, have historically held the upper hand in conflicts in the Middle East due to their superior military technology and resources. However, as American veterans who fought in Afghanistan and have since joined the foreign legion are discovering, the dynamics of warfare can be vastly different in other regions, particularly when facing formidable opponents like Russia.

These veterans, accustomed to fighting insurgencies without tanks, fighter jets, and artillery, are now encountering the harsh realities of trench warfare and the devastating impact of being pinned down by enemy artillery. Their assumption that combat against Russia would mirror their experiences in the Middle East, facing poorly equipped adversaries, is quickly shattered.

Many foreign soldiers who have joined the conflict in Ukraine find themselves reevaluating their expectations within the first week of fighting. They come to the stark realization that Russia is not akin to the impoverished countries of the Middle East, where regime changes may seem attainable. The formidable strength and capabilities of the Russian military present a formidable challenge, unlike any they have faced before.

Your lies made them think Russian soldiers were easy to defeat

These mercenaries thought they were fighting in Syria or Libiya. Got the shock of their lives very shortly after entering Ukraine. Most were dead within an year. Others fled.😅

[OXY]

its a different kind of war when your opponent isn't some farmer haji in flipflops with weapons that belong to a museum.

[woody_fromdaix]

As a Russian soldier beutifuly explained it to me as simply as possible with whats really going on in the conflict and he answered me in the most Russian way possible and said - they (Ukraine) are winning the Internet war we (Russians) are winning the real war!

[MrAce]

It literally all of NATO versus Russia alone and Russia still handle it and still kicking ass 😂
