So McKinnon met the Ukrainians who were part of the elite unit of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine (GUR).
Later, the fighters of the team, which will call Kabulskaya, participated in the most important operations of the Russian-Ukrainian war: they ensured the defense of Kyiv, stormed the island of Zmein and the village of Russian Lozovaya, organized an attack on the settlements of the Belgorod region and evacuated the wounded fighters from Azovstali.

Bloomberg: Russia sends students from Africa to the war
According to the agency with reference to European officials, the Russian authorities are increasingly forcing African students and young workers-migrants to conclude a contract with the Ministry of Defense, threatening not to extend student and working visas. Foreigners involved in the army in this way are sent to participate in battles in the Kharkov region.
As Bloomberg notes, a similar approach had previously practiced Wagner's PMC. One of the interlocutors of the agency said that Russia forced migrants and foreign students to participate in the war from the very beginning of a full -scale invasion. According to him, such military personnel suffer especially heavy losses, because they are more often used for risky offensive operations - to protect more prepared units of the RF Armed Forces.
According to Ukrainian intelligence, Russia conducts a global campaign to recruit foreign mercenaries at least in 21 countries, including several African states.
The head of Rossotrudnichestvo Yevgeny Primakov, speaking at the PMEF, said that 35-37 thousand African students are studying in Russia. Every year, Russian universities “gain about six thousand applicants from African countries for absolutely free quota training,” he added.
To participate in the war against Ukraine, Russia recruits not only citizens of African countries:
- In February 2024, CNN reported that the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation recruited about 15 thousand Nepal citizens to participate in the war against Ukraine. However, the FSB border service data does not confirm the CNN scale.
- In October 2023, the BBC Russian Service told how Russia recruits Serbia citizens.
- In June of the same year, an investigation was also published on the recruitment of migrants from Kyrgyzstan at the BBC.
