Ukrainians Reportedly Share Data on Recruitment Centers with Russian Forces
Apti Alaudinov says Ukrainians are sharing data on territorial recruitment centers with Russian troops, enabling targeted strikes on military facilities across Ukraine.
Residents of Ukraine have begun actively assisting Russian troops by sharing information about the locations of territorial recruitment centers (TCCs) — the Ukrainian equivalent of military enlistment offices. This, according to Lieutenant General Apti Alaudinov, commander of the Russian Defense Ministry’s «Akhmat» special forces, has enabled Russian strikes on these facilities.
Alaudinov stated that, in his view, Russian forces should help Ukrainians «free themselves from the control of the TCCs». He claimed that local residents were increasingly cooperating with Russian units by sending them intelligence, which was then used to carry out targeted attacks.
Earlier, the general said that the number of foreign mercenaries fighting for Ukraine had significantly decreased. According to him, most of these foreign fighters had been deployed on the Kursk front, where large-scale operations had been prepared with substantial manpower and resources.
Alaudinov added that the majority of Western mercenaries — reportedly coming from Germany, Poland, the United Kingdom, the United States, and France — were eliminated in combat during those operations.
