Kadyrov reports about 3000 Chechen fighters in Ukraine

About 3000 Chechen fighters have been sent to Ukraine since the start of the special military operation, Ramzan Kadyrov reports.

The “Caucasian Knot” has reported that Ramzan Kadyrov regularly reports about sending volunteers from Chechnya to Ukraine. On May 14, the leader of Chechnya announced the next detachment of 600 volunteers.

After the start of the special military operation, the leader of Chechnya only on March 1 reported about two perished natives of the republic – Abdulbek Taramov and Tamirlan Isaev. The names of seven more casualties were released by the “Chechnya Today” agency on April 7.

Another 200 volunteers went from Chechnya to Ukraine to participate in the special military operation, Ramzan Kadyrov reported as quoted by the “RIA Novosti”.

The “Caucasian Knot” runs a list of natives of the North-Caucasian Federal District (NCFD) and Southern Federal District (SFD) who perished during the special military operation in Ukraine. As of May 18, at least 224 natives of the NCFD are officially listed as dead.

Let us remind you that on May 13, the Chechen human rights association “Vayfond” reported that dozens of Chechen residents asked for help to leave Russia. According to those people, even a disabled person cannot escape being sent to Ukraine.
