“Not good to be a soldier on the battlefield nowadays, the shots are very accurate, with pretty much no warning,” wrote another.

“You shouldn’t show that to the world. will be hard enough for your guys to get along with what they had to do to conquer russian invasion. to those applauding such videos: is that what you think good society, democracy, christianity stands for?” read a tweet.
