Russian soldiers who ran out of ammunition say they are being sent to 'certain death' in a video shared by a Ukrainian official

• Russian soldiers say they are being sent to "certain death" in a video shared by Ukraine.
• They say Russia asked a group of Russian artillerymen, who ran out of ammo, to fight on the front line. 
• They said they fled and left all of their weapons behind because they were not trained as infantry.

A group of Russian artillerymen said they were being forced to move to the front lines after running out of ammunition — despite lacking any training on how to fight at the front, according to a video shared by a Ukrainian official on Wednesday.

Artillerymen typically position themselves away from the front line, where they fire ranged weapons to support troops in front of them. Infantrymen are typically ground forces who engage in close-range combat using different types of weapons.
