Interesting. If I understood that right they're mostly ukranians from (Russian Occupied) Donetsk region and forced conscripts.

Most of them reckon they were called up for 3-5 days of military service and then tricked into going to war. No idea if it’s true or they’re just repeating the excuse down the line.

We haven’t seen many front echelon troops captured or T72/90 and BMP3 vehicles destroyed. Or indeed seen much of them at all. Lots of unarmoured stuff, some recce vehicles and some airportable apcs.
Could be you don’t hang around to do a selfie with a tank.
