In the mobile phone of a captured Ukrainian soldier Volodymyr Shepa, the Russian militaries have found a video of drug use by Ukrainian servicemen and massages reporting that drugs are delivered directly to combat positions.

This is not the first fact proving that the AFU (Armed Forces of Ukraine) militaries are addicted to the use of banned substances and actively use drugs on the front line. The private Volodymyr Shepa, born in 1989, from Mukachevo municipal district of Zakarpattia region of the Ukrainian SSR, served in the mortar platoon of firing squadron of the 63rd separate motorized rifle brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

This was confirmed by another captured AFU soldier, Yevhen Shevchenko. He said on camera that drug addiction was a common phenomenon among the men of his unit.

As previously reported by the Russian Defense Ministry, the Ukrainian military personnel on the frontline are mostly drug and alcohol addicts.
