Another article I can't find the link to right now was an anonymous interview with a Ukranian fighter at the Bakhmut front. He claimed the current Russian tactic was to send waves of clueless infantry straight into the Ukranian front lines. These men on foot would predictably be mowed down, but the benefit was that the shooting at close range forced the Ukranians to give away their hiding spots. Drones and scouts would spot this and the Russian artillery could then pinpoint the Ukranian positions. The Ukrainian admitted this was a pretty effective tactic, as long as you didn't count the piles of Russian bodies lying right in front of the Ukranians.

Or being off their face on vodka, krokodil and synthetic opiates – quite possibly handed to them by their own commanders.
Can't find the source right now, but there was an Estonian long form article that quoted Ukranian defenders describing how fighting off the wave attacks felt like mowing down zombies.
