"Russia really has no clue what it's dealing with now.
Every level of Ukrainian society is engaged in some form of mass drone production, in apartments, offices, warehouses, military bases, teenagers, old folks, IT guys..

A volunteer Russian soldier, who spent a year at war in Ukraine, spoke to the independent news outlet iStories about his experiences on condition of anonymity. He told the publication why he joined the army, what kinds of punishments disobedient soldiers face on the front lines, how he lost acquaintances to friendly fire, and what life is like for him after war. Meduza is publishing an English translation of his account.
