Much of the world is on the side of Ukraine and Ukrainians, it couldn’t be otherwise. As the Russians advance, they also find themselves surrounded by organizations that have a hierarchical structure, have permits, are authorized to use weapons, and form a regular armed body, even if they don’t belong to any real army: they are them paramilitaries and the excombatants tasked with tracking down the Russian soldiers and signaling their position to the Ukrainian army, which then opened fire.
Mission in Ukraine
Although badly affected, and in the last few hours its core research center too, when Kharkiv it didn’t fall, it’s also thanks to them. The paramilitaries conducted a multiday mission that resulted in the killing of some readytofire enemies. This is demonstrated by some “war trophies” such as headgear and other Russian artifacts. But what is their identity kit? In some cases they are Ukrainian excombatants in the Donbass, in other cases they are foreigners, such as numerous Lithuanians, who have come to help their brothers against Putin. I’m from Kaunas but recently lived in Denmark for over a year. I just went into the military reserve Lithuanian to train me. I remember we talked about how to help the Ukrainian people and when I finished my training I thought maybe it was time to do something concrete, says one of the soldiers.
How paramilitaries are recruited
In practice, the volunteers buy the essentials, such as helmets and bulletproof vests, at their own expense. Those who can also manage to bring some useful money to buy medical first aid kits for the military. Be able insert Alongside Ukrainians, they had to present documents to regularly enter the country and joined Zelenskyi’s soldiers to enlist as foreign volunteers. One thing is immediately apparent: they don’t have any weapons with them, they are made available at the destination and brought back when the mission is over. “As we entered the country to reach Dnipro, we went through dozens of checkpoints and were not yet armed, and it was worrying to move. voltage, mainly because we were foreigners and there were situations where someone asked us to pass and others pointed their guns at us instead. Then we arrived here and through our contact,” says a foreign soldier, as reported by Messenger.
The most risky task
Instead of opening fire, their most important task is tactical: they must spy on the enemies who are trying to understand their movements and immediately report them to the “real” army fighting the Russians on the front line. That’s why they operate behind enemy lines. “We moved between completely destroyed villages and there were corpses everywhere. The Russians are war criminals. They shot at civilian houses with tanks from above.” Unfortunately, we’ve heard this story dozens of times before, but the Russians of Moscow, the Russians forever, still know little or nothing thanks to the Kremlin’s disinformation. Every now and then, as is proper, they rest and have a few beers. Many of them are also willing to use technology and have found a Russian base with a drone targeting up to 120 Ukrainian soldiers.
“They must be eliminated”
“They all have to be eliminated,” says a Ukrainian army officer who is happy to confide in foreign friends who are risking their lives to save that of their brothers, but also their own freedom. Another helps his wife and daughters, who can only count on his financial support. “Together with many other people, we are already organizing an aid chain for our Ukrainian brothers. We are all European brothers and will fight back to the end. orcs Russians”.
