Russian soldiers wives tell Putin 'go die on the frontline' amid Ukraine anger
“Go to the frontline yourself - and die,” that is the blunt message from the wives and girlfriends of mobilised Russian soldiers to Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
Partners of enlisted men are demanding an end to the slaughter Putin triggered two years ago when he invaded Ukraine amid an upsurge in anti-war protest in Russia. “Vladimir [Putin], what have you brought people to?” demand the soldiers’ partners on The Way Home, a Telegram channel which demands a return of soldiers to their homes.
“We Russians have no hope left under your leadership. Finish your work and sit down at the negotiating table,” the Women’s protest channel said. Channel members slammed Putin’s reasons for staging a war which is estimated to have killed and maimed over 300,000 Russians, amid clear signs of a female backlash against forced mobilisation.
“What the hell are deNazification and demilitarisation?” The Way Home asked. “Do you yourself understand what you are talking about? Every time you say these words, people die. Let us live in peace! Or go to the front yourself - and die,” they demanded.
“This will not happen, because the interests [of the authorities] must be served at the expense of the soldiers - ordinary Russians. How cynical do you have to be to continue this bacchanalia and put a good face on a bad game? Won't you stop until you kill all the young ones?

The channel highlights one mobilised soldier Alexander Shpilevoy, 27, who tells Putin on video: “Just let them go home, everybody wants to go home, everybody really wants to go home.” He told how Russian propaganda says that Ukrainian soldiers are sent to war like “meat” - yet this was exactly what was happening in Russia.

He mocked Putin’s aim of invading to “demilitarise” Ukraine, warning this aim was leading to a Russian bloodbath. “I'd like to believe it, I'd like to believe it, but I don’t, about the goals of the [war], about the goals of demilitarisation,” he said.
In a video, wife and mother Paulina ridiculed Putin for naming 2024 as the Year of the Family in Russia - when he has torn families asunder by forcing men to war. “I was amused that the president declared 2024 the year of the family,” she said.
“Why is it the year of the family and I don't have a husband? “It's like mockery or taunting…” Her IT specialist husband was mobilised 14 months ago since when she has raised her child alone. Tearfully she said: “I just want him to come home soon.”

Her case was highlighted by The Way Home channel.
“I am the wife of a mobilised fighter who….came out of the mission and can no longer feel his legs,” she said. “He was supposed to be admitted to the hospital, but [instead] he will be attached to the battalion Sarmat and will go on assault…. It's just impossible, his children need him, I beg you. Save my husband's life, at least let him get back on his feet… Please spread this video and help my spouse to be hospitalised.”
