RUSSIA is Running Out of Prisoners as over 100,000 Recruited to Storm Z & V Units for Ukraine War

Video Summary

The global prison population has been increasing rapidly, with a 27% rise in the past 24 years, according to the United Nations. The continent with the most prisoners is Asia, with 4.3 million people in prison, out of a total population of 4.6 billion. Europe, North and South America, Africa, and Oceania also have significant prisoner populations.

In contrast, Russia’s prison population has been decreasing, with a 10% drop in 2023 alone. This is largely due to the Russian army recruiting prisoners directly from prison to fight in Ukraine. This trend began with the Wagner group, which was replaced by the Storm Zed units, and later by Storm V units, which are also comprised of prisoners.

While these prisoners are not trained soldiers, they are being sent to the front lines, where they face significant risks, including death and injury. This trend is not only ineffective in terms of warfare, but it also raises ethical concerns. The breakdown of morale and the high mortality rate amongst these troops is a major issue.

The Russian government’s reliance on prisoners to fight its war in Ukraine is a cause for concern, as it suggests a lack of support among the general population and a struggle to maintain troop numbers. In conclusion, while the global prison population is rising, Russia’s trend of recruiting prisoners to fight in Ukraine is an unusual and concerning development that raises questions about the effectiveness and ethics of this approach.
