VLADIMIR Putin’s desperate troops have been overheard threatening to eat their fellow soldiers in chilling new audio.
Ukrainian officials intercepted a conversation between Russians on the frontline where they claimed to be already “sharpening their knives”.
The Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense (GUR) released the haunting audio which was taken from the frontline in Zaporizhzhia.
A male voice can be heard saying in the recording: “We’ll eat each other, it’s all f**ked up here.
“We’re already looking for someone younger. I’ve sharpened my knives. I have a lot of knives.”
The audio continues: “I don’t give a f**k who I have to cut up.
“I just want to eat. f**k everyone else.”
The GUR said the conversations come at a time when Putin’s men are being starved on the frontline due to a lack of rations being delivered.
The harsh winter has meant moving across occupied Ukraine is becoming harder as the temperature continues to plummet.
Kyiv’s spy agency warned: “Due to a lack of food, the occupiers are sharpening their knives and preparing to eat their younger comrades.”
Acknowledging the horror consequences of the war, Ukraine even offered the starving Russians a choice.
They told Putin’s hungry troops: “The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine reminds you Russian prisoners of war in Ukraine are fed three times a day.”
They were then given instructions on how to safely surrender on the battlefield using the “I Want to Live” project bot.
They added that this isn’t the first time cannibalism has been seen in the war.
“Cannibalism is becoming a common practice among Russian soldiers,” they announced in a statement.
“In June this year, it became known that a serviceman of the 68th Motor Rifle Division of the Russian Armed Forces had been eating his ‘comrade’ for two weeks.”
Cannibal killers have even been allowed to sign up to fight for Vlad, it has been claimed.
Yegor Komarov was arrested after a headless body with multiple stab wounds fell out of a car as he later admitted he “nibbled to just take a taste”.
Instead of being in jail, he was reportedly sent to be among those in the notorious Wagner Group of mercenaries.
Dozens of prisoners – including murderers and sex offenders – were told they would be allowed to walk out free after the war if they lasted on the frontlines.
It comes as the gruelling conflict continues to rage on with peace talks still slowly moving.
Eight people were killed and 27 wounded in a Russian missile strike on Ukrainian port facilities overnight.
Trucks caught fire and cars were damaged as infrastructure was hit in Black Sea port city Pivdenne.
Little progress has been made on peace but a trilateral meeting is supposedly being discussed between Kyiv, Washington and Moscow.
US and European officials reportedly approved such a meeting as Volodymyr Zelensky said European envoys should also be present.
But the Kremlin denied that three-way talks are on the cards.
Vlad’s foreign policy adviser Yuri Ushakov told reporters: “At present, no one has seriously discussed this initiative, and to my knowledge, it is not in preparation.”
