A Russian soldier was caught complaining on an intercepted phone call. He said his unit had no ammo and was being given "one grenade per person, only to blow up ourselves." Multiple reports, as well as captured Russian soldiers, have said that Russian troops aren't being given enough ammunition or supplies. And in June, Russian President Vladimir Putin admitted that Russia didn't have enough equipment, including "high-precision ammunition, communications equipment, aircraft, drones, and so on." Russian troops have also reported not getting the money they were promised for fighting in Ukraine.
