#2 Russian government won't acknowledge it but word is getting out.
Wives, mothers and relatives of recently killed mobilized soldiers in #Makiivka, Luhansk oblast are asking their government to send back their loved ones, dead and injured.

Russian gov won't repatriate the bodies since:
1. Would admit the clusterfook they made in Ukraine
2. Would require compensation to families. That's money out of government theft pool for the ruling class. The missing don't get a payday.
