Ukrainian Channel 5 reports this.
It is reported that this is the next, already seventh, rotation of Ukrainian peacekeepers in the Congo.
According to Ukrainian journalists, 250 former ATO militants are sent to the Congo with the goal of “counteracting the civil war.”
“They will stay in this African country for a year, but they will not gain any special combat experience, because all of them have already gone through the ATO,” the message says.
Unless the salary from the UN will be significantly higher than what Ukraine paid them.
