The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine published data confirming that Russia is scaling its criminal practice of recruiting foreign nationals and labor migrants into its armed forces through deception or coercion.
This was stated in a message from the DIU of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
This time, in the Donetsk region, John Patrick — a citizen of the Republic of the Philippines who was fighting on the side of the aggressor state — was eliminated.
The foreigner served in the 9th Assault Company of the 3rd Battalion of the 283rd Regiment of the 144th Motorized Rifle Division of the 20th Combined Arms Army of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
Like many other foreign mercenaries, Patrick was killed during a “meat assault” near the settlement of Novoselivka in the Kramatorsk district of Donetsk region.
The occupier had only weapons, ammunition, and a piece of paper with a unit number, a phone number, and the commander’s name. He did not speak Russian.
According to data extracted from the Filipino’s electronic devices, his basic training lasted only one week, after which he was immediately sent to the front line. He was wounded and slowly died in a forest belt — no evacuation was planned.
The DIU of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine warns foreign citizens against traveling to Russia and any work on its territory, especially illegal employment.
“A trip to Russia is a real chance to end up in an assault company without training and without a chance to survive”, — the DIU emphasized.
