Another rotation of Russians troops will mainly consist of residents of the Russian Far East and Kamchatka, as they are better adapted to life in low temperature conditions and will be more effective in the winter period, reports the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine’s Defence Ministry.

Details: Ukrainian Intelligence says that new recruits are better adapted to life in conditions of low temperatures and will be more effective in winter. Also, these servicemen are not accustomed to comfort and will easily tolerate the lack of well-established living conditions.

The Intelligence Directorate has learned that Kremlin recruiters managed to attract part of the population of the northern regions with promises of high payments.

However, these personnel "are poorly trained and know practically nothing about the real state of affairs of the hostilities in Ukraine."

Meanwhile, the Russian Federation has announced a campaign to raise funds for the purchase of winter uniforms for the occupying contingent stationed in Ukraine.
