MOSCOW – NATO soldiers fight against the military Russia in the Ukrainian conflict by disguising himself as a mercenary. This was claimed by the deputy chief of the Russian General Staff, Colonel General Sergey Rudskoy, a few days after Moscow dealt a major blow to Kiev by capturing the main city of Donbass, the city of Avdeevka.

“Ukraine’s shelling of Russian civilians – most of which was carried out from Avdeevka in previous years – occurred on the orders of Kiev and with the tacit approval of Western countries,” said the deputy chief of the Russian General Staff, Colonel General Sergey Rudskoy , to the Krasnaya Zvezda newspaper.

The US and its allies provide Ukraine with a comprehensive arsenal and provide communications services and intelligence information. “But some of the equipment requires qualified Western personnel in the field,” said Rudskoy.

He revealed that NATO soldiers disguised as mercenaries participated in military operations. “They control air defense systems, operational-tactical missiles and several rocket launch systems, and enter into assault detachments,” Rudskoy said.

NATO officers directly prepare military operations for the Ukrainian armed forces.

In mid-January, the Russian Defense Ministry announced it had killed more than 60 foreign fighters in precision strikes, the majority of whom were French speakers.

Although France later denied that any of its armed forces were in Ukraine, the French defense minister admitted that some French citizens went to war as “volunteers” – and claimed that as a “democracy”, Paris could not stop them from doing so.

According to Russian Defense Ministry estimates, more than 5,900 foreign mercenaries have been killed in Ukraine since the start of the conflict in February 2022. The Ukrainian Army suffered nearly 160,000 casualties during disastrous counteroffensive last year alone, according to the Russian Defense Ministry.

“Kiev suffered heavy losses, failing to penetrate Russia’s tactical defense zone, while the Russian Army studied and tested new ways of warfare,” Rudskoy said. He added that after the capture of Avdeevka, Russian troops improved their positions along the line of contact.

MOSCOW – Since the massive invasion Russia to Ukraine in February 2022, the Kremlin has had to adjust its battle strategy as its forces have struggled to break fierce Ukrainian resistance and suffered heavy losses.

Since then, Russia has turned to both modern and vintage Soviet military equipment to try to turn the tide.

Here are the 4 main military systems Russia uses to do this, from the Ka-52 attack helicopter to the Lancet drone.

The Ka-52 is one of the best and most maneuverable attack helicopters in the world.

Airforce Technology reports that the helicopter is capable of reaching speeds of up to 300 km per hour and is armed with a 30 mm cannon.

The aircraft can also be equipped with VIKHR anti-tank missiles, ATAKA missiles, B8V-20 rocket launchers and IGLA-V anti-aircraft missiles.

The aircraft’s coaxial main rotor adds to its maneuverability and allows it to hover at higher altitudes than single main rotor helicopters.

“In contrast to single main rotor designs that distribute power to the main and tail rotors, all power for the coaxial rotor is used for vertical thrust. Thus, no power is wasted for anti-torque or directional control,” according to the NASA Technical Report. “The saved power helps coaxial rotors reach higher altitudes than single-rotor helicopters.”

The Ka-52 has been a thorn in Ukraine’s side during its counteroffensive, and the British Ministry of Defense called it “one of the most important weapons systems” in its operations around Zaporizhzhia Oblast in southern Ukraine.

They are thought to have destroyed infantry fighting vehicles such as the US-made Bradley fighting vehicle and tanks such as the German Leopard 2.

But Russia’s Ka-52 fleet has been greatly reduced during the war, as Ukrainian air defense systems, including American stinger systems, have proven highly effective in combating the aircraft, Forbes reported.
