According to the General Staff, the Russian command has begun to issue drugs and psychotropic substances to soldiers. This particularly concerns the personnel of the 108th Air Assault Regiment of the 7th Air Assault Division.
"These drugs lead to euphoria and dull the pain. Soldiers who use them are more likely to agree to harsh assaults without fear of injury or death," the General Staff said in a statement.
Over the past 24 hours, Ukrainian Defence Force aircraft struck 4 areas where Russian personnel, weapons and military equipment were concentrated. Air defence forces also destroyed a Kh-59 guided missile.
Rocket Forces and Artillery troops struck 3 clusters of personnel, weapons and military equipment, an air defence facility and 2 storage points belonging to the occupiers.
