As the ice melts, it becomes increasingly difficult for both warring parties to advance on the battlefield in Ukraine. That could be the case right now, as Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense has released a video showing extremely muddy ground conditions with the caption: “Spring is here again.”

Estonian public media journalists who recently visited the Ukrainian positions near Bakhmut have also complained about the mud in Ukraine.
“Together with cameraman Kristjanas Svirgsden [Ukrainas armijas] We spent less than three hours in the positions of the 24th brigade, but I already have the feeling that there are three, if not five kilograms of this Donbas mud on each leg. I can’t imagine how soldiers deal with it every day,” said ERR journalist Anton Alekseyev.
“We have to hold the defensive line. For example, I slept in such mud and nothing. The main thing is that I’m alive and well, and that’s good,” Mykola, a soldier of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, commented on the situation.
On the other hand, soldier Yuriy, describing the battles with “Wagner” fighters, said that “they inject themselves with something”. “We collected their weapons on the battlefield and when we opened their machine gun cases, we found syringes there. They were so fearless that they went into battle without bending down. They get hurt but they still walk or crawl. I don’t know what they injected themselves”, Yuri described the situation.
