The cross-border attack by ‘pro-Kyiv Russians’ is conveniently close to the Belarus border
Alexander Lukashenko doesn’t travel that often out of his fiefdom but on occasion, he does leave so suspecting that the attack on the border city of Bryansk took place to take advantage of his absence would be, well, possibly inaccurate — but not completely off.
The Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK) — a grouping of Russians fighting for Ukraine against Moscow’s ongoing invasion of the country — on Thursday claimed to have undertaken a cross-border operation in which they attacked Russian military units.
Russian media claimed Thursday that a group of Ukrainian “saboteurs” had crossed the border into Bryansk Oblast, which borders Ukraine and Belarus, engaging in firefights, taking several people hostage, and inflicting civilian casualties (What Is the Russian Volunteer Corps).
There has been some speculation that the forces that assaulted across the border are not really the Russian Volunteer Corps, a group of Russian emigres who formed a fighting unit last summer to takethe war to Russia to end the fascist occupation of the country, but Kremlin-backed forces undertaking a false flag event.
