A separate special unit of Ukraine’s International Defence Legion has been created at the Chief Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defence. The special unit have already started performing combat missions.
This was reported by the Chief Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defence.
“Today’s war is being waged not only against Ukraine, but it is also the war against the whole free world, against the legal framework of humankind according to which the right of nations and countries to freedom and self-determination, the inviolability of territorial borders is the cornerstone for peace. The criminal Putin’s regime has decided to repeat the fate of Hitler and the Third Reich: it has resorted to a total war of aggression involving slaughter of civilians,” the head of the Chief Directorate of Intelligence Kyrylo Budanov said.
We remind you that as of yesterday, 06 March, according to the Minister of Foreign Affairs Dmytro Kuleba, more than 22,000 volunteers and veterans from 52 countries are coming to defend Ukraine from Russian aggression. Among them 3,000 American volunteers have expressed their will to join the service in the International Legion.
As a reminder, on 27 February, President Zelensky called on all foreigners willing to protect security in Europe to join the Ukraine’s International Legion of Territorial Defence. On 28 February, a legion of volunteers was formed.
