    This is the actual new logo of what was McDonalds in Russia.

    From BBC.

    The Russian fast food chain that was formerly McDonald's in the country has revealed its new logo as it prepares to reopen its restaurants from Sunday.

    The new branding features a circle and two lines, which are said to represent a burger and two French fries.

    The company has not yet revealed the name of the chain, although a number of options have reportedly been considered.

    Maybe, or McMikoyan which was the Soviet sort-of-a-burger equivalent.

    Mikoyan cutlet with meat: 50 Roubles
    Mikoyan cutlet with named meat: 150 Roubles

    McKoyans? Brain blocked, too hot and humid where I am.

    Russian soldiers afraid to fight following destruction of Wagner Group mercenaries.
    Following the killing of a large number of Wagner Group mercenaries, Ukraine’s Security Service has intercepted communications suggesting that ordinary Russian soldiers – who are currently eating dogs in order to survive in Ukraine – are now afraid to fight.
    https://euroweeklynews.com/2022/05/31/russian-soldiers-wagner-group/

    These soldiers will be forced to stay and fight or will be executed by the Russians themselves:
    “Contract servicemen in the Russian army are waiting for the end of June to leave Ukraine as soon as possible.”
    “At the end of this month, the 90-day term for “special operations” stipulated by the Russian law will expire. Therefore, those of them who entered Ukraine in February have grounds to “legally” leave the service.”

    Some where told they had to defend an oil platform that Ukraine wanted to invade. When these Russians arrive in Luhansk area they understood it was a lie. Commanders told that their only option now was to fight the Ukrainians.

    Life for a Russian soldier in the Republics in Ukraine:

    • men who live in these Republics are forced to sign a contract for Russian Army. Who refuses risks to be executed. Women who complain about these blackmails on their husbands, risk 20 years of prison. Putin just made a new law for that.
    • 7 men who signed (forced) where sent the same day to the first line. They had a gun but no military experience. After the first day 1 was already dead and 4 were so heavily wounded that they cannot fight anymore. So in 1 day they went from 7 to 2 soldiers.
    • A Russian fighting group of 1,800 soldiers was after a few fights reduce to:1,000 dead, 400 out because heavyly wounded, and 400 still alive. Information came from several surviving Russians from this group.
