Putin's army has a brutal way to handle soldiers | Break the Fake

Vladimir Putin continues to promise Russian soldiers support, benefits, and recognition as "heroes." But one captured Russian soldier tells a very different story about what happened when he needed help on the battlefield.

The soldier was captured by Ukrainian troops from the 155th Separate Guards Naval Infantry Brigade. According to his testimony, when he asked his Russian commander for help and evacuation, he was given a shocking response: "Shoot yourself."

His account offers a disturbing glimpse into the treatment of Russian soldiers on the battlefield and the stark contrast between Putin's promises and the reality some troops say they face.

In a new episode of Break the Fake, Benjamin Lee looks at the captured Russian soldier, his claims about Russian commanders, and the growing gap between Kremlin rhetoric and the reality on the front line.
