Large-Scale Strikes of Employees Over Non-Payment of Salaries Are Sweeping Through russia
7/2/2025

russian companies have increasingly started to hold back wages, send employees on unscheduled vacations, cut jobs or transfer employees to a 4-day work week. As a result, outraged workers are going on strike.
According to the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine, this has recently happened at the Kamchatka-based “ZapsibGazprom-Gazifikatsiya”, in Kemerovo region at the “Spiridonovskaya” mine, and at the Chelyabinsk Electrometallurgical Plant.
The crisis at enterprises today is most pronounced in the coal mining, construction, metallurgical and agricultural machinery building industries.
Under the circumstances, the rf is trying to hide the extent of employee discontent by cutting off the Internet, blocking social media, and tightening media censorship. According to the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine, russia fears that mentioning the problems in the media could lead to a cascading effect of strikes throughout russia.
The Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine reminds that 69 % of russia’s economy is stagnating, while putin’s associates are putting pressure on the Central Bank over declining profits.
