The real story about joining Wagner
no salary
they dont get paid
they give them a suicide grenade to carry in case they are captured
they tell them they will be executed if they surrender
no operational knowledge
just being pushed around without information.
20 of the 25 man unit were killed

We had a spammer in here once who was posting links about washing machines for sale that seemed to be Russian language or Russian location oriented. Must be a desperate shortage of laundering devices in Vlad's kingdom.

crush wagner
make their life hell

i dont think ukraine should waste lifes on crushing wagner but they could step up general artillery to disrupt their sleep patterns so in theory it will give drone recon more opportunity to locate high value targets.

i think if wagner folds it will be significant because they maintain the middle of the supply line
but its a hard call to put more resources into a hardened target because it takes more time and more resources for limited gain.
so the question is what would it take to make wagner retreat or collapse.
wagner is their strongest unit sitting in a vital zone to maintain the large scale front line and supply route.
maybe its better to wait till winter and they are frozen in and then pick them off.

i imagine all commanders & officers (high value targets)will retreat during winter if they have not already
