I was watching this video about Ukrainian special assault forces taking over an entrenched Russian position in 2024. The narrator mentions that the Ukrainians assaulted the trenches early in the morning while ALL the Russians in the trenches were sleeping, thus catching them by surprise! LOL! (3:19 mark of the video)

The Russian military never ceases to amaze me with how pathetic, incompetent and unprofessional they can be. If I were in any position of leadership over soldiers defending a position anywhere near the frontline, I would have them sleeping in shifts, with whole squads ready for any potential assault. I’m just a regular guy with zero military experience, but it really looks like I’d be a far better commander than anyone these Russian soldiers had. What idiots!
