‘He Ate His Comrade'
2025-06-22
[OTP] A phone call intercepted by Ukrainian intelligence reveals a heinous act of cannibalism among Russian troops, with one soldier accused of murdering and devouring a fellow serviceman while deployed in eastern Ukraine.

In a recording published on Friday by Ukraine’s military intelligence agency, HUR, on its Telegram channel, a Russian commander is heard telling a subordinate that a soldier identified by the call sign "Brelok" devoured his brother-in-arms "Foma" over the course of two weeks.

"Brelok took him out and then ate him for two f***ing weeks," the voice says in the audio, which GUR attributes to a reconnaissance unit commander from Russia’s 68th Motorized Rifle Division.

Later, "Brelok" himself was found dead, the recording claims.

"They say he was a 200 [Russian military slang for a killed soldier], f**k. Well, he ate his comrade, so that’s something to think about," the Russian soldier remarks grimly in the recording.
Why is this news? It's always been the hallmark of communism.
Both sides have tales of how vile the other is. One hopes most fervently that all are fictional, especially the early ones about civilian Ukrainians under siege…
