“Look what we got,” the Russian soldier starts his video. “Here’s a brand new grenade, but there’s no TNT in it. We have received dozens of such grenades,” he continues. “Our commanders are angry and ask us why we are not firing and why there are no explosions. Well, here’s why: they’re just empty.”
The soldier criticizes that the Russians cannot win the war with such weapons. “We will be sent to our graves with this,” he laments. It is not clear where exactly the video was recorded.

It is far from the first time that Russian soldiers have denounced the situation at the front. Not only the ammunition, but also the guidance and training they receive would leave much to be desired.
According to Ukraine, Russia has lost 6,337 artillery systems since the start of the war. Moscow, in turn, claims that Kiev has already lost 6,557. However, both figures cannot be independently verified.
