Pro-Ukrainian Russian fighters have said they will continue their attacks in Russian regions. Following the recent advances into the Russian border regions of Belgorod and Kursk, the attacks would also be expanded “to other cities,” representatives of the groups “Russian Volunteer Corps,” “Siberian Battalion” and “Legion of Freedom of Russia” told reporters in Kiev on Thursday.
The leader of the “Russian Volunteer Corps”, Denis Nikitin, known in the hooligan and right-wing extremist scene, said that the three groups had opened a second front as part of a “large-scale military operation on enemy territory”. His goal is to “hoist” his group’s “banner” over the Kremlin and install a “nationalist-oriented government.”
“Not strong enough” to take permanent control of Russian places
Pro-Ukrainian units made up of Russian fighters said they had recently increased their attacks on Russian border regions during the Russian presidential election last weekend.
According to Nikitin, the attacks are intended to force Russia to withdraw soldiers from the front in Ukraine to defend its border regions. “The military infrastructure of our unit is interconnected with the structures of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the Ministry of Defense,” he said. However, the groups are currently “not strong enough” to take permanent control of Russian towns.
