    What a surprise. Said no-one.

    Seriously through, this is the result of Putin’s lack of backbone in declaring this an actual war, which would both allow him to recruit conscripts and reservists, and cause quite a bit of international and domestic push back. The only (currently preferred) alternative appears to be to just roll the dice on giving convicted killers weapons and hoping for the best.

    This entire operation has made a joke of the Russian military.
