this is a bit gruesome.....but just in case the russ thought they were welcome in the east .......
Ukrainian partisans have been carrying out attacks on Russian soldiers in Mariupol in recent months, according to a report from the Kyiv Post.
More than 40 Russian soldiers have been killed as a result - most of them by poisoning - sources told the paper.
In the most recent incident, 26 troops were killed and 15 treated in hospital.
"This is the activity of partisans. It became possible because of a new rotation [of personnel] and because the orcs [derogatory term for Russians] are idiots," a source said.
They continued: "They were fed poison. The cooks are safe now, as are their families."
In a previous incident last summer, five Russian soldiers drowned in the city after drinking poisoned alcohol.
