โ€ผ๏ธ Africans for $2,200 - Russia is intensifying the recruitment of mercenaries for the war against Ukraine

๐Ÿ‘ฅ The aggressor state Russia has significantly intensified the campaign to recruit foreign mercenaries for the war against Ukraine: it is about recruiting manpower in central Africa, in particular - in Rwanda, Burundi, Congo and Uganda.

โœ”๏ธ A specially created unit of the Ministry of Defense of Russia deals with the recruitment of Africans for their participation in "meat" assaults on Ukrainian soil.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Mercenaries are lured with an initial cash payment of $2,000 for signing a contract, a monthly security of $2,200, medical insurance, and a Russian passport for the soldier and his family members are promised.

โ—๏ธ We will remind you that earlier mercenaries from Nepal, recruited by Moscow for the war against Ukraine, deserted en masse from the occupation army due to numerous losses and the brutal treatment of Russian field commanders.

I mean, I wouldn't call that lured that's just a job and benefits. That's that's what everyone uses to get employees.

It's a lot easier to not pay a dead foreign soldier than a full time employee you have to lay off.

You're assuming they get any of that and not just a stick and an order to charge a Ukrainian position
