Russian Soldier Dies After Killing And Eating His Comrade To Survive Ukraine War: Report
A Russian soldier on the frontlines in Ukraine died after killing a comrade and eating his corpse in a desperate attempt to survive wartime conditions, according to the Kyiv Post. The incident came to light after Ukraine's Main Directorate of Intelligence allegedly intercepted a phone call between two Russian soldiers discussing the gruesome story of the cannibalistic 'Brelok', who killed his countryman 'Foma'. "Brelok f***ing ate him, f*** me... nobody went anywhere. Brelok took him out and then ate him for f***ing two weeks," the first caller said, per the New York Post.
"No f***ing way... Holy shit... F*** my bald skull. Was Brelok really found as a 200?" the other person replied, using Soviet era slang for a soldier found killed in action. "Yeah, they say he was a 200. He ate his comrade. So yeah... something to think about. I was shocked myself," the caller concluded, per the Post.
'Berlok' was later found dead, according to the outlet.
Russia has reportedly recruited criminals, including murderers and convicted cannibals, to fight in Ukraine.
According to the Moscow Times, Denis Gorin from Sakhalin, who killed four people and was sentenced to 22 years in prison in 2012, ate part of the body of one of his victims. He was released in 2023 to fight for Russia in the Ukraine war. He served in the ranks of Storm-Z and was injured during a battle, after which President Vladimir Putin granted him a pardon. This enabled Gorin to return to his hometown as a free man.
Another criminal, Nikolay Ogolobiak, convicted of killing two young women and cooking their organs in 2008, was released in 2023 to fight for Russia. Convict Dmitry Malyshev, who was jailed for killing three men and pan-frying one of their hearts, was also sent to the frontlines.
This comes as Russia continues to pound Ukraine. Earlier this week, Russia launched a major missile and drone attack on Kyiv, killing at least 14 people and wounding several others. The attack occurred as world leaders gathered in Canada for the Group of Seven (G7) meeting.
Interior Minister Igor Klymenko said that 27 locations in different districts of the capital came under enemy fire. "Residential buildings, educational institutions and critical infrastructure facilities" had all been hit, he said, adding that 30 apartments were destroyed in a single residential block. "The deaths have risen to 14 people. As of now, 44 people have been injured in Kyiv," Klymenko added.
In Moscow, Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said Russian air defence units had repelled an attack on the city by two Ukrainian drones. The city's airports were briefly closed.

Why Chinese hackers have unleashed cyberattacks on 'friend Russia' since Ukraine conflict, what 'war secrets' are behind these attacks
AI Image Cyber analysts have reportedly discovered a strange cyberwarfare trend. According to a report by New York Times, quoting security researchers, since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, groups linked to the Chinese government have repeatedly hacked Russian companies and government agencies in an apparent search for military secrets. There has been increase in Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Chinese government-linked hackers have repeatedly targeted Russian companies and government agencies, seeking military secrets, according to the New York Times report. The cyberattacks, which intensified in May 2022, have persisted despite public declarations of a 'no-limits' partnership between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Chinese hacking groups 'targetting' Russian businesses The report claims that a Chinese hacking group, Sanyo, impersonated a Russian engineering firm's email addresses in 2023 to steal data on nuclear submarines, as uncovered by Taiwan-based cybersecurity firm TeamT5, which linked the attack to Beijing. 'China likely seeks to gather intelligence on Russia's activities, including on its military operation in Ukraine, defense developments and other geopolitical maneuvers,' TeamT5 researcher Che Chang told the Times. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo A classified Russian FSB document, obtained by The New York Times, reveals Moscow's concerns about China's pursuit of Russian defense technology and battlefield insights, labeling China an 'enemy.' This contrasts with the public Sino-Russian alliance, as Russia relies on China for oil markets and war-critical technology. The document highlights China's interest in drone warfare and software, noting that 'the war in Ukraine fundamentally shifted intelligence priorities for both countries,' according to Itay Cohen of Palo Alto Networks, as quoted by the Times. What techniques Chinese hackers are said to be using against Russia The New York Times also reports that Chinese hackers targeted Rostec, Russia's state-owned defense conglomerate, for satellite communications and radar data, using malicious Microsoft Word files to infiltrate aviation and state entities. Groups like Mustang Panda, suspected of ties to China's Ministry of State Security, have hit Russian military and border units, the Times notes, citing Rafe Pilling of Sophos. Pilling told the Times, 'The targeting we've observed tends to be political and military intelligence gathering.' Proprietary malware like Deed RAT, used by Chinese state-sponsored hackers, has been deployed against Russian aerospace and defense sectors, the report said, citing Positive Technologies. Despite 2009 and 2015 agreements barring mutual cyberattacks, the Times notes that experts view these as symbolic, with hacking spiking post-Ukraine invasion. 'The activity — we saw it immediately in the months following Russia's full-scale invasion,' Cohen told the Times, highlighting the tension beneath the public narrative of Sino-Russian unity.

Last Updated: An intercepted phone call by Ukraine between two Russian soldiers reportedly revealed the incident. A Russian soldier died after killing a comrade and eating his corpse in an attempt to survive during the wartime crisis, reported the Kyiv Post.

Meanwhile, with the tension between Russia and Ukraine continuing, Russian troops on Saturday captured the small settlement of Zaporizhzhya in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region, Russian state news agency TASS reported. The small village of Zaporizhzhya, once home to around 200 residents before the war, lies close to the strategic city of Pokrovsk- a vital transport hub in eastern Ukraine that has witnessed some of the most intense fighting in recent months. On Friday, Russian drones slammed into two Ukrainian cities, killing at least one person in nighttime attacks. Moscow targeted the southern Ukrainian port city of Odesa and the northeastern city of Kharkiv in the overnight assault.

'Russia continues its tactics of targeted terror against our people," Zelenskyy said on messaging app Telegram, urging the United States and the European Union to crank up economic pressure on Russia.
