A viral video on Telegram a couple of weeks ago of a Russian soldier coldly dispatching a fellow soldier after he'd been hit by a drone has proven to be a problem that just won't go away. Although unconcerned with their soldiers' morale at the front, such videos pose a problem for recruitment so the powers that be thought it necessary to lie about the event and claim it was Ukrainian soldiers instead. Small problems with that claim include: they were wearing Russian uniforms with Russian insignia, the FPV video and the FPV drone that exploded were Ukrainian-made, and the geolocation of the event was behind the frontline on the Russian side near Robotyne.
