A 61-year-old Russian from the Tver region came to the SSU to fight with the RF troops on the Ukrainian side.
The SSU press centre reports that he made this decision consciously, understanding who is the invader and occupier on the territory of Ukraine.
"I have no combat experience, but I will go to defend Ukrainian independence holding weapons in my hands! I urge Russian soldiers not to carry out criminal orders, not go to war! Come to your senses, think of mothers and your relatives," said the man to his compatriots.
Yesterday, three captured Russian security officers who were going to seize Kyiv reportedly gave a press conference. They apologized to the people of Ukraine and added that they would understand if they were not forgiven. They are also ready to receive any fair punishment.
