“Nobody ran away. ‘Brelok’ took him (comrade) out and then ate him for two f*cking weeks,” a speaker identified by HUR as a commander of a reconnaissance unit from Russia’s 68th Motorized Rifle Division can be heard saying in the intercept.
How can one know if this is authentic?
It’s probably not. This sort of propaganda has been used by militaries throughout history to dehumanize the enemy.
We-ell, I’ve seen it in a Russian TG chat. IIRC the conversation implies two soldiers deserted, were in a house in the middle of nowhere, one killed another, ate him for a couple of weeks, then died. Then their, eh, brothers in arms found that place.
Okay I am not trusting the KyivIndependant on this one man. Thats a wild claim that screams propaganda
Yup. But might as well be true. C’mon, they take soldiers from prisons, what could go wrong?
Idk man that seems like a really irresponsible way to interpret information. I prefer to stay vigilant regardless of which perspective I favor
No need to favor either of the sides. It’s 2025 and both are already complicit in atrocities.
How likely was Ukraine losing 50k soldiers, while Russia has over one million? Probably there’s no such chance. That’s blatant ukrainian propaganda.
How likely a cannibal was recruited in Russia, did eat his comrade, and the rumor was intercepted? Well, it’s possible.
Edit: I agree that broadcasting the intercepted messages is indeed a piece of propaganda. But I claim that it might be rooted in the reality
I never said it was impossible. Only that it is hard to believe based on the source
I wouldn’t be that surprised since they are pulling people from the bottom of the barrel.
Did he get a medal for streamlining food logistics?
classic Brelok
Strelok’s evil twin.
Human meat can’t be that good can it?
kinda interested in this
Probably russian comrade meat has a bit of cigarette and vodka flavour. I’ll have to admit that’s not my ideal flavour profile.
