Russian occupier complained about lack of payments before death: correspondence from the found phone
Fighters from the 225th separate assault regiment showed correspondence from the phone of the liquidated Russian stormtrooper Ivan Nesterenko, where he complains about the lack of payments and threatens to write to the prosecutor's office. It is noted that in March 2025 Ivan signed a contract, but was liquidated in May in Sumy region.
If those who went to war in previous years still receive something, then new stormtroopers are used as expendable material, thrown to slaughter and written off earlier than they receive the promised payments.
In Ivan's correspondence with Natalia, a representative of the military bureaucracy, he complained about the lack of salary, combat comrades, and other payments. In response, he received only standard phrases and unexpectedly confirmed receiving injuries from a drone.
Ukrainian intelligence intercepted a conversation between Russian occupiers, where one of them stated that Russia is becoming more and more like North Korea. Russians are beginning to fear that their country could turn into North Korea, despite the presence of North Korean soldiers in their territory.
Despite the efforts of Kremlin propaganda, it seems that Russians have no particular desire to die for their 'tsar', Putin.
Summary: Fighters showed correspondence of a liquidated Russian stormtrooper who complained about the lack of payments after signing the contract. At the same time, intelligence intercepted a conversation where RF soldiers express fears that their country may become like North Korea.
