Murderers and sex criminals are freed by Russia to participate in the six-month conflict in Ukraine.

Murderers and sexual offenders have been freed by the Russian authorities to take part in the six-month battle in Ukraine.

In a recent video that Mail Online was able to get, Putin's "chef" was shown promising to free violent offenders and sex offenders imprisoned in Russian prisons in exchange for their survival in the conflict in Ukraine.

Yevgeny Prigozhin, the 61-year-old leader of the Wagner organisation, advised the inmates to commit suicide rather than risk being apprehended in Ukraine while holding one grenade for the enemy and one for themselves.

Following a humiliating loss to the Ukrainian army in the east, the Kremlin ramps up recruiting of prisoners, as seen in a video of Prigozhin telling the convicts they can become military heroes or be shot as deserters.

He was recorded telling them, "This is a severe war, not even near to the likes of [Chechnya] and the others."

He said that his ammunition consumption was 2.5 times greater than it was during the Battle of Stalingrad, which resulted in over 2,000,000 fatalities.

Putin offers rapid freedom and a pardon to murderers, sex criminals, and burglars who endure six months on the front lines of the brutal conflict.

He assures them that those who pass away will be buried "like heroes."

The command is given to employ grenades to destroy oneself rather than fall into enemy hands if one faces capture by Ukraine.

Convicted soldiers who desert are warned they would be shot in the head immediately and executed.

In a covertly recorded video, Prigozhin, 61, is shown acknowledging that he represents the Wagner private army that Putin sent to Ukraine.

He has previously denied any affiliation with Wagner, an organisation that is believed to have enlisted thousands of captives as Russia uses its most dangerous detainees as combatants.

He introduces himself to the gathered prisoners by saying, "I am a representative of a private war firm, perhaps you heard the name Wagner Group."

The first sin is deserting, he tells the prisoners. Nobody abandons ship, gives up, or surrenders. You'll be instructed on how to surrender.

They should commit themselves rather than being imprisoned, he remarked.

He said, "Two grenades which you must carry with you [one for our enemies and one for yourself]."

The prohibition of alcohol and narcotics in war zones is the second sin. Marauding is the third sin and entails having sex with anyone, including local women, men, flora, and fauna.

"Good physical shape" is a requirement, and our minimum age cutoff is 22.
