Washington, (ST) – The American Politico magazine revealed that an unknown number of Americans with a military background participated in the Ukrainian conflict on the side of the Kiev regime forces and their mercenaries.
The magazine stated that the Ukrainian embassy in Washington is using the Internet to recruit foreign “volunteers.” This matter came after Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky had urged Europeans to join the conflict by claiming that “anyone who wants to join” to defend the security of Europe and the world “can come and fight alongside the Ukrainian forces.” “.
According to the magazine, a person by the name of Harrison Josephovich left his job as a police officer in Chicago and headed a group called “Task Force Yankee” consisting of 190 people who were deployed to combat locations in Ukraine. It stressed that there are thousands of American “volunteers” and others also in Ukraine.
Willie Joseph Kansel, a former soldier in the US Marines, was killed last week in Ukraine after he joined the ranks of foreign mercenaries who flocked to Ukraine to support its regime in the face of Russian forces and the forces of the Donetsk and Lugansk republics.
Meanwhile the British Foreign Office announced the killing of a British mercenary in Ukraine and the loss of another.
The Russian Ministry of Defense had revealed earlier that the Kiev government had recruited thousands of mercenaries from 63 countries.
The Ministry pointed out that, the Russian forces, during their military operation to protect the residents of Donbass, were able to liquidate more than a thousand of these mercenaries.
