On the battlefields of eastern Ukraine, the Wagner mercenary group plays a decisive role for Putin’s troops: the private army is considered particularly brutal and accepts high casualties. “It’s like a zombie movie,” a Ukrainian soldier described Wagner’s mission in the hotly contested city of Bakhmut. And he expresses the assumption that the mercenaries will be pumped full of drugs before the fight.
“Our machine gun almost went crazy,” the soldier told CNN. His colleague shot at a mercenary, but he kept fighting. “He said, I know I shot him, but he doesn’t fall. And then after a while, maybe bleeding to death, he just falls over.”
The mercenaries would come in droves, wave after wave. “They climb over the corpses of their comrades, step on them. There is a good chance that they will be given drugs before the attack.” But what is given and how does it work? You can read it in our multimedia special.
