Killing one's own soldiers is common practice of "motivation" among commanders of russian army - Defense Intelligence

The Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine told how the aggressor army treats its own soldiers.

"In a radio intercept obtained by Ukrainian intelligence, the commander of one of the units of the 155th separate marine brigade of the Pacific Fleet of the aggressor state orders to execute a wounded soldier of the same brigade," the Defense Intelligence said in a message on Saturday.

"Shoot him on...! There are no sick people in the marines - there are living ones and there are dead ones. He has no other options. I order to shoot him if it doesn't go any further," the Defense Intelligence quotes the russian commander as saying.

The intelligence report notes that killing one's own soldiers is a common practice of "motivation" among the commanders of the army of the aggressor state. The threat of execution is the only way russian commanders force personnel to carry out combat missions.
