comment: Russian forces have reportedly been using civilians to find safe routes through Ukrainian landmine fields in order to reach Ukrainian positions, the Ukrainian government's National Resistance Center reported Sunday.
  In addition to Russian forces risking the lives of civilians to ensure their own safety, the report further added that Iranian and Pakistani refugees are also sent into Ukraine's borders by Belarusian troops in order to find vulnerable areas on their shared border.
  
  You know Russia's reputation is kaput, when you hear them using refugees / civilians as mine cleaners and all you can think of is "sounds about right".
