It is planned to form a company of volunteers in Ingushetia and send it to the military operation in Ukraine. Instagram* users have criticized this idea, suggesting officials to send their sons to Ukraine.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on June 12, the "Rosgvardiya" (Russian National Guard) fighter from Ingushetia, who had been participating in the military operation in Ukraine for several months, returned to their homeland.

By June 17, according to authorities' official information, at least 10 natives of Ingushetia had perished in Ukraine.

It is planned to recruit and train 94 contract servicemen under the age of 50 for the Ingush company.

Most social network commentators have criticized the idea. "The Ingush company should protect the people and territory of Ingushetia, and not [to participate in hostilities] in Ukraine," the user shah_korolevskiy has written.

"Those people who persuade our guys to join this Ingush company have neither shame, no conscience," the user abdullayovlo believes. "Let the officials who are sitting there go there ... together with their sons," the user 404.ing has suggested.
