Ah yes, fresh cannon fodder. What an absolute needless amount of death.
dude has only known war. this is sad as hell.
This is how you wipe out a generation.
And Russia’s demographics were *already* fairly fucked.
I don’t get the significance of 2008. Is it that he was only 18? I can’t imagine that in 4 years of war he was the first to be 18 when he died.
From the source. „Since the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, at least 200 18-year-old Russians have been killed on the front lines.“ So why is 2008 so significant?
The Russians can stop this war whenever they decide to do so.
Same birth year as me. Jesus
That’s just really sad
That’s so sad that a lot of those soldiers come from minorities from places far from moscow. Their lives count less than those from the western part of Russia
That’s so sad. Not even a chance at life. F Putin
He has some blame but mostly the state propaganda and fellow russians are to blame for his death.
Dude was in middle school when this war started
How many soldiers must be dead for Putin to realize that war needs to end?
The children yearn for the fields of combat.
So damn sad. That’s exactly the kind of future the right wing extremists Putin bootlickers have in mind for us – why the fuck are the centrists appeasers not more vocal about it.
I wonder if he had time to do at least one war crime.
Good
What a waste of life, but the biggest waste of life of all is Putin
Not so smug anymore.
Putin is one of the sickest people alive right now.
Putin couldn’t care less. He wants Ukraine no matter how many people he kills in the process.
This is actually surprising as the average age of both Russian and Ukrainian soldiers is 50. It’s mostly old man’s war which is a first.
punchable face
He was a machine gunner, per the article, and he would have killed Ukrainian soldiers at best, and civlians at worst.
And most importantly, a CONTRACT SOLDIER.
This isn’t a volunteer or a conscript, this is a person who signed up for money.
What difference does the year of his birth matter?
Less than 3 months of service and only 18. With how Russian demographics are, they are soon to send actual children like Germany did at the end of WW2. The guy was infant when the Russo-Georgian war happenmed, he never had chance to grow up and remember he experienced peace looks like.
What the fuck? Russia need to be stopped
Oh no!
Anyway
Let’s hope this war will not come for 2009 soldiers.
Russians can always retreat, the war is lost.
Russia is literally destroying their future in an unnecessary war.
In that year the Burning Crusade expansion of World of Warcraft was wrapping up and Wrath of the Lich King was on the horizon.
calm down, family gets bag of potatoes and 5L of oil
lol how old was the soldier, like 7-8 years old…? Oh dear
My brother is from 2008 and was adopted from Russia in 2010. It really makes you think.
An Uzbek boy stepped up to fight Russia’s ethnowar for a cash bonus. He just got paid.
„Since the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, at least 200 18-year-old Russians have been killed on the front lines.“
Come join the Russian army it’s a job for life
*your experience may vary in duration*
*pension included but may be sold off*
Crazy
14 when the war started… barely 12 for Covid
