A spooky winter is waiting for a Russian soldier in Ukraine: frozen corpses and illnesses - The Sun

According to General Ben Gogeges, in winter it will be difficult for the Russians, as in Finland in 1939. In the ranks of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation can be outbreaks of diseases, as Russian positions are completely disorganized, dirty and resemble "morning after a rock concert". Russian soldiers may face extremely difficult conditions that were close to those in which the Soviet army found themselves during the 1939 invasion of Finland. About it reports The Sun.

Then the bodies of the Red Army soldiers lay in the snow, the soldiers froze in the trenches, and the tanks were deaf. In winter, the air temperature in Ukraine can drop to -31 ° C, the average temperature -8 ° C, and during the day it can fall up to half a meter of precipitation. Winter in Ukraine is much softer than some regions of the same Russia, but still for poorly worked, insufficiently trained soldiers, the winter war can be quite harsh.

"In the cold, you are not only moving slower, you think more slowly, and the likelihood that the units will scatter and escape will grow,"-explained the former commander of US troops in Europe Lieutenant General Ben Gogess. Despite the fact that Ukrainians are waiting for the same weather conditions, the Armed Forces seem more equipment and motivated compared to the army of the Russian Federation, in which many have only recently been mobilized.

Next winter can be the most inhabited period of war for Putin. In addition to the Ukrainian army, Russian troops that lack winter clothes will have to fight the environment. He believes that the Russian command just wants to exchange "bodies for a while" and check for the strength of the event's determination in their support of Ukrainians, and to delay the war.

The retired Colonel of the British Army Richard Camp also believes that Russian troops may be in crisis, but notes that in such weather conditions it will be difficult for everyone. According to him, frosty weather will also be added to all difficulties, which is why the war will turn into a survival exercise. "The Russian recruits will arrive at the front poorly equipment, without winter clothes. They will find themselves in trenches filled with water.

One thing when you win, but if you lose, the psychological effect will be spooky," the general said, adding that you should not forget and forget and forget that you should not forget and forget The fact that many of the Russians were in the war not out of their own will. General Gogess explained that it is not only in the cold, but also in potential diseases among the Russian military.

According to him, he saw pictures of Russian positions that were disorganized, dirty and resembled "Morning after a rock concert. " "The matter is not in order, but to do the necessary things, for example, to throw away waste," the Lieutenant General explained. "In the case of unprepared soldiers, it will be even more difficult.

They are waiting not only for cold and humidity, but also illness," - said Goodges, reminding the Crimean war, during which, according to historians, there were more than more than injuries than injuries. Recall that in Moscow began to equip bomb shelters, including anti -radiation. They equip beds, biodiles, drinking water and medicines. Earlier, Focus reported that Biden shouted at Zelensky, who demanded more weapons for Ukraine.
