In the shocking video, as soon as the Russian starts the engine of the armored vehicle, hundreds of rats are seen coming out of the combat vehicle.
Not only food and technical supplies suffer from rat infestations. The rodents have already caused damage to costly communication systems and even pose a threat to helicopters, which have become the main type of infantry equipment in this war.
It turns out that, in addition to common items, rats are causing damage to artillery gunpowder, compromising the combat readiness of military units.
