Russia Mobilisation l Rusty Guns For New Recruits As Putin Scrambles To Stop Kyiv’s Counteroffensive

Russia's mobilised soldiers have allegedly been provided old and ‘rusty’ weapons by the Kremlin. Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to Ukraine's internal affairs minister, posted a video showing soldiers handling firearms in rough shape. The recruits expressed dismay in a volley of swearwords after a tank crew was provided with long-discarded weapons in Primonsky. A Russian soldier was reportedly told that since they were part of a tank crew, the rusty weapons would be good enough.
