Defence Intelligence of Ukraine DIU has learnt that Russia has increased financial bonuses for Russians who volunteer to join the war against Ukraine.
Source DIU Details DIU reported that in some regions, the onetime enlistment payment has surpassed RUB 2 million about US23,600 since the start of the year, while recruits in Samara Oblast are being offered nearly RUB 4 million about US47,300.
Ukrainian intelligence interprets this as a sign of reluctance among Russians to join the war.
Quote The regular increase in financial bonuses is a forced step by the Kremlin, indicating difficulties in backfilling units.
It is becoming increasingly difficult for the aggressor states authorities to find enough people willing to fight, even for substantial sums.
