Russia was literally forcing poorly equipped and even more poorly trained prisoners to rush at the enemy and absorb bullets.

As for units refusing to fight, we have seen second line Russians mowing down front line Russians trying to escape the battlefield. There have also been recent reports of Russian pilots sabotaging their own aircraft to keep themselves from flying dangerous missions. Of course there were also the Wagner troops that started marching on Moscow.
