"The Russian elite paratroopers have staged a mutiny after witnessing their comrades being
wiped out in battle.....The soldiers were from key airborne forces headquarters in Pskov in northern Russia.
wiped out in battle.....The soldiers were from key airborne forces headquarters in Pskov in northern Russia.
The refusenik troops had been moved to Belarus as part of the
invasion force but after their mutiny, they were sent in disgrace back
to their base in Pskov.
Some have been dismissed and branded "cowards" while others are set
to face the Russian equivalent of a court-martial with likely jail
sentences.
Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu is reported to have sent one of his deputies to Pskov to handle the insubordination." Sun
