Captured soldiers families don't get wages labelled as traitors.
Many soldiers get killed but are labelled MIA so families again don't get paid.
Wounded are complaining they are not getting the compensation due as per the contract.
Soldiers refusing to go into the meat grinder are tortured...

Trump is still with holding some $250m that was approved by the senate.

As Russia continues to bomb Kyiv targeting energy facilities, water treatment works and civilian targets in a push ahead of peace talks held in Switzerland (17th & 18th Feb), they are loosing ground and troops in huge numbers accelerated by the loss of Starlink and Telegram. The Russian MAX state sponsored app used in lieu of the above is slow and pin point accuracy is time constrained.
As an aside, even if there is a peace deal and a cessation of conflict, I think it's too late for Russia. It would be nigh on impossible to turn away from a war economy and reconcile the financial carnage.
Interest rates are currently iro 15%
30% of bank loan portfolios can't even keep up with interest payments. Half the portfolios are in such bad shape that banks are not expecting to see any meaningful reconciliation.
The state owned railway system is $50bn in debt
Russian oil (Urals) is selling below cost price
The banking sector is in a quagmire
Russian businesses and the state is pleading to businesses to settle transactions using the dollar.
Russian infrastructure has been pushed beyond breaking point in the face of cash shortages and years of under-investment/corruption
Russia is loosing more soldiers than it can recruit
Satellite pictures of war dead cemeteries is being blurring by state intervention
There are innumerable videos of soldiers on the front line begging for supplies plus videos of people in towns and cities across Russia begging the government for cash to fix heating systems, sewerage systems, infrastructure and roads: there aren't even snow ploughs out to clear them.
So desperate are they, that they are forcing soldiers to pay money not to go into the meat grinder or they are forced to do so:
