The theory is clear. I was hoping for an answer addressing the reality. Anyone any ideas about how the 2 000 Russkis are being fed and watered ?
Mainly locals, the only Russians being around 100 officers presumably being quartered within the perimeter of the arms dump. .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operat...Russian_Forces

The Operational Group of Russian Forces in Transnistria…is a sizable overseas military task force of the Russian Armed Forces. It serves as part of the tri-lateral Joint Control Commission (JCC) in the region with around 350 soldiers provided to the JCC.

1,500 soldiers of the military force are based at the former decommissioned Soviet-era ammunition depot at Cobasna, where it guards around 22,000 tons of military equipment and ammunition.

The core of the OGRT consists of 70 to 100 Russian officers who normally rotate every six months, with the rest being Transnistrian locals employed as soldiers.
