The logistics forces of the Russian Army work in the field to provide logistical support to troops engaged in the special military operation in Ukraine.
In particular, they cook food, bake bread, and maintain bathing facilities, as well as provide repairs, maintenance, and refueling for military vehicles in the field.
The everyday life of Russian troops might not be easy, but they take joy in human pleasures like we do – especially when it comes to hugging a cat, or making some coffee.
Sputnik shares a glimpse with you of the regular life of Russian soldiers on the front line in the photo gallery below.
