| [LB] Each had a token indicating their status. by Vera Perun Prisoners of Russian prisons began to fight against Ukraine in the Russian army.
This was reported in the Strategic Communications Department of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Ukrainian fighters neutralized three occupiers. Everyone had a token with a number. "Apparently, they expected a pardon when they were hired, but at best they received a "Kalina 200", if there is someone to receive it. But tokens were issued," StratCom noted. It will be recalled that at the beginning of July it became known that the Russian private military company "Wagner" undertook to recruit for the war in Ukraine the prisoners of two colonies of St. Petersburg ("Yablunivka" and "Obukhova") to help in "detecting Nazis." According to Ukrainian intelligence, in 2 months, the Communist Party of Ukraine plans to recruit up to 10,000 "volunteers" among convicts and send them to fight in Donbas. One of the main tasks of such units will be to establish control over the roads in the direction of Izyum - Sloviansk - Bakhmut. Such "soldiers" must wear special tokens that will indicate their status. | |
