A TERRIFIED Russian soldier told his grandmother that he wants to “get the f*** out of Ukraine” and that the war will be over in two weeks.
The unnamed soldier was overheard speaking in an intercepted phone call home, which the Ukrainian government released.
Vladimir Putin’s troops have suffered from low morale after the tyrant’s promised quick victory turned into a bloodbath in the face of fierce Ukrainian resistance.
At the start of the phone call, a woman asks the soldier, “God, when will this end?” To which he responds, “scary granny.”
He goes on to say that his “entire brigade was smashed” and that “I don’t know how God saved me.”
“To be honest, I’d get the f** out of here right now and I don’t care,” the soldier says.
“The most important thing is to get through hell alive.” We expected everything to be over in two weeks. It’s already been almost a month.”
The call, as well as its English translation, was posted on the Telegram account of government adviser and foreign minister Anton Gerashchenko.
The soldier goes on to discuss the cold and how soldiers’ and officers’ legs and hands have “frozen up” as a result of living in trenches.
“This money is a shambles. Nobody needs it,” he says, cursing Vladimir Putin.
The intercepted call follows one in which a soldier complained about his comrades getting frostbite and encountering fierce Ukrainian resistance.
Conditions had deteriorated to the point where “50%” of his squadron was suffering from frostbite, he claimed.
In a three-minute phone call with a commander, the soldier said troops were being forced to “ride around” with the dead because they couldn’t be transported out.
He also claimed that troops were stymied by Ukrainian resistance and lacked proper amenities and medical supplies.
He also claimed that they were now forced to live in trenches.
The disgruntled squaddie also complained about not having enough armour and being stuck outside Mykolaiv for days despite being promised a “quick” victory.
