On this episode of Break The Fake, Jonasz Rewiński examines how Russian conscripts and servicemen are pressured into joining the war, the threats facing those who refuse, and the grim reality behind Moscow's promises of rewards for its soldiers. We also look at the bizarre story of a 52-year-old Russian serviceman who returned wounded from fighting near Vovchansk, only to discover that his wife had transferred ownership of their apartment to herself while he was away. He survived the war in Ukraine. His reward? Coming home to find himself without a home. Join us to learn how Russia's supposedly “voluntary“ recruitment system really works, and what can happen to those who survive the front line.
