President Vladimir Putin asserts that Russian society can tolerate the high human cost of the war in Ukraine. Analysis of more than 6,000 official complaints by soldiers and their relatives reveals widespread reports of abuse, mistreatment and pressure within military ranks.

The scale and detail of the complaints point to systemic institutional problems rather than isolated incidents.
