Heating in prisons began to be turned off in Russia
In Russia, in 30-degree frosts, the heating in prisons is turned off so that prisoners are more willing to go to war. The publication reports Bild.
In many Russian regions, frosts of 35 degrees have settled. Putin is trying to use this cold weather to make up for losses in the war in Ukraine, which is why heating in the colonies began to be turned off.
They want to create “unbearable conditions” for prisoners so that they are more willing to go to war, says Olga Romanova, founder of the Sitting Rus’ project.
“In Russia, there are three groups of the population for whom the majority does not feel compassion when they die at the front. These are prisoners, minorities living in poor regions far from Moscow, and new citizens”.
“While these three groups are fighting and dying in Ukraine, Putin can create the illusion of normalcy for the rest,” Bild journalists quote Romanova.
According to the human rights activist, female prisoners are increasingly being recruited in Russian prisons. There are currently about 1,000 Russian women fighting in Ukraine.
Apparently, Putin is ready to do anything to avoid open mobilization on the eve of the elections, which his voters will definitely not like.
