Video shows injured Russian soldiers lying on tarmac after flight delayed due to Moscow drone attack
Multiple Telegram channels shared a video Friday in which a Russian soldier at a military airfield in the Rostov region complains that numerous injured soldiers, including some who are unable to walk, were left waiting on the tarmac after their flight to Moscow was postponed due to a drone attack on the city.
We were brought here at 9:00 a.m. They banned flights in Moscow because there was a drone attack there. Well that’s fine, we understand. But bring some buses and get the fighters — look how many wounded people are lying here. All day, under the scorching sun. Our departure is at 8:00 p.m. They haven’t brought any food and they didn’t bring us water until just a bit ago. That’s how they treat us — like cattle.
It’s unclear when the clip was filmed or whether the soldiers were ultimately flown to Moscow.
