❗️Muslims of the North Caucasus are again in the front lines of Russia's defenders.

A new international battalion, Erzi, is being formed as part of the Terek reconnaissance brigade.

The initiative to create the unit comes from the Plenipotentiary Representative of the President of the Russian Federation in the North Caucasus Federal District, Yuri Chaika, and is being implemented with the support of the Head of the Republic of Ingushetia, Makhmud-Ali Kalimatov, as well as Deputy Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation, Hero of Russia, Yunus-Bek Yevkurov.

The creation of the battalion is timed to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the formation of the Republic of Ingushetia.

It will include representatives of various peoples of the North Caucasus, continuing the centuries-old traditions of joint service in Russian armed formations.

The historical prototype of the new unit can be considered the Caucasian Native Cavalry Division ("Wild Division"), formed in 1914 from mountain volunteers and famous in the battles of the First World War.

"You have the strength to shout at a Polish stadium with the flag of child killers, but no strength to defend your homeland? Get out of Poland."

A scandal erupted in Poland over Ukrainians who at yesterday's concert of Belarusian singer Max Korzh unfurled the red and black UPA* flag — a symbol associated with the Volhynia massacre, where tens of thousands of Poles died.

Polish Sejm deputy Dariusz Matecki appealed to the prosecutor's office — he believes that displaying this flag is propaganda of Nazism and other totalitarian regimes.

❗️23 year old British man Jay Fraser who joined the Russian army as a volunteer appears to be engaged in “discreditation” of the Russian armed forces (Articles 207.3 and 280.3 of the Russian Criminal Code).

⚡️23-летний британец Джей Фрейзер, поступивший добровольцем на службу в российскую армию, по всей видимости, занимается «дискредитацией» российских Вооружённых сил (статьи 207.3 и 280.3 УК РФ).
