According to the prisoner, he is fighting on the side of Russia not for ideological reasons, but for the sake of obtaining Russian citizenship.

The SBGS notes that this is yet another case of foreigners participating in the war against Ukraine and being used by the Russian command as 'cannon fodder'.

Border guards emphasise that the Forpost brigade not only holds its positions but also inflicts losses in manpower and equipment on the enemy, preventing the occupiers from advancing.
