The Ukrainian military is using foreigners to break through the Russia-Donbass defense line

LUGANSK, November 9. /TASS/. Foreign mercenaries make up 100% of some Ukrainian subversive/reconnaissance groups, Lugansk People’s Republic (LPR) militia officer Andrey Marochko said in a live broadcast of the Letuchka program on the RT television channel on Wednesday.

Responding to a question about how the number of mercenaries fighting for the Kiev regime had changed in the past six months, he said that their share had increased considerably.

"Moreover, the situation is different in each unit. If we talk about assault groups, their share reaches 50% there while some subversive/scout groups are 100% manned by foreigners," Marochko said.

The Ukrainian military is using foreigners to break through the Russia-Donbass defense line, he said.

Speaking about the situation along the engagement line, the LPR people’s militia officer said that it was "complex but stable.".
