Anti-Putin Nazi group launches attack inside Russia; Ukrainian soldier shows incredible bravery [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.', 'Backgroundurl Avatar_Large', 'Nickname', 'Joined', 'Created_At', 'Story Count', 'N_Stories', 'Comment Count', 'N_Comments', 'Popular Tags'] Date: 2023-03-02 During the night (for us) a rather bizarre incident took place across the border from Ukraine in a Russian area called Bryansk in which a group of Russian neo-Nazis opposed to Putin launched some kind of an attack and took video of themselves. x The Russian Volunteer Corps, which consists of ethnic Russians, recorded an appeal to the Russians straight from the Bryansk region calling for the fight against the bloody Kremlin Putin regimehttps://t.co/EDTzaMDBHh pic.twitter.com/JecG2kcQjJ — Special Kherson Cat 🐈🇺🇦 (@bayraktar_1love) March 2, 2023 What happened there isn’t exactly clear. Russian reports claimed that the attackers took hostages. What is clear, however, is that Vladimir Putin is jumping all over it. A reconnaissance group claiming to work for the Ukrainian military crossed into Russia and allegedly launched an attack on Thursday, prompting Vladimir Putin to convene his security council and delay a planned trip out of Moscow. Russian authorities said on Thursday that the group had entered a village in Bryansk region near Russia’s border with Ukraine and shot two civilians but did not provide evidence of an attack. In a planned address on Thursday, Putin claimed that a “terrorist attack has been committed today.” “They infiltrated the territory close to the border and opened fire at civilians,” Putin said. “They saw the car [they have attacked] was civilian, they saw the kids inside — but they opened fire.” Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s adviser Mykhailo Podolyak said the move was “a classic provocation” from Russia. What is clear is that these Russian volunteers are not good folks. They are Nazis. Supposedly they have been in Ukraine fighting (for their own reasons) against the Russian military. There is an old saying that goes — the enemy of my enemy is my friend. That’s not the case here. This group is doing Ukraine no favors. -----------------------------------------------— Is that a Ukrainian Audie Murphy in the trench?
