The Russian army is completed "unconventionally" - British intelligence

This is reported by the edition of the Liga.net with reference to British intelligence.

The Russians continue to lose their soldiers due to attempts to advance towards Slavyansk and Kramatorsk. The Russians are also regrouping for further offensive operations.

Intelligence specifically indicates that a shortage of personnel is likely forcing the Russian Ministry of Defense to resort to "non-traditional recruiting", including recruitment in prisons for PMCs.

"If true, this move seems to indicate difficulties in recovering a significant number of losses," the statement said.
