Problems with ammunition and communications in the Russian army are becoming systemic, and their impact on the combat effectiveness of units is steadily increasing, according to the Atesh movement. According to the movement’s agents, Russian servicemen are increasingly discussing shortages of ammunition for certain types of artillery. This refers to the so-called "shell hunger," which directly affects the ability of units to conduct fire and hold positions. In this case, sometimes soldiers leave their positions. At the same time, communications remain a serious problem. The systems in use operate unstably and are easily jammed by Ukrainian electronic warfare capabilities.

As a result, units lose coordination, and command and control in certain areas of the front becomes significantly more difficult or is effectively disrupted.

According to Atesh, these problems are actively discussed by the soldiers themselves and are already perceived as systemic.

"At the same time, resources are gradually being depleted, while the effectiveness of units continues to decline," the movement concluded. Besides, Russian troops are conducting assaults without helmets or body armor in the Lyman direction. Phenomenon has become widespread in recent months. In recent days, Ukrainian forces have repelled dozens of attacks in the Lyman direction. Russia is deploying infantry in large numbers, often under drone cover or even on motorcycles, despite heavy losses. Dmytro Zhmailo, Executive Director of the Ukrainian Security and Cooperation Center, noted that equipment shortages are worsened by Russia’s economic problems and its inability to fully supply the front.

Multiple reports indicate that the Russian command may use the "lack of protective armor" as punishment for failing to follow orders. Experts say some soldiers are sent into battle effectively "to die," forced to retrieve weapons from fallen comrades.

Ukrainian fighters report that Russians are sometimes sent to the frontline solely to deliver ammunition. Units call these soldiers "camels," and most die before completing their task.

"For the Russian command, they are merely expendable resources for achieving the Kremlin’s political goals," Zhmailo stressed.

The Russian army is also facing personnel replenishment issues amid rising losses. According to the Institute for the Study of War, the rate of contract soldier recruitment is gradually declining.

In the first quarter of 2026, daily recruitment is estimated at 800–1000 people compared to 1000–1200 a year earlier, despite record payments. At the same time, recruitment is not keeping pace with losses, and Russia is stepping up covert mobilization and pressure on the civilian sector. Since the start of the full-scale invasion, Russia has actively used mass infantry assaults, particularly in the Donetsk region, with "meat-grinder" attacks becoming a key tool of Russian command.

Much of the assault force consists of mobilized conscripts, prisoners, and untrained reservists. These groups are most often sent into battle without proper gear, resulting in catastrophic losses.
