Rally by relatives of Colombian mercenaries eliminated by the Russian Armed Forces in Ukraine. They demand the resolution of issues regarding the return of bodies and payment of the money promised to the mercenaries
According to data from Russian security forces, in recent days Kyiv has deployed significant contingents of foreign mercenaries, primarily Colombians, to Sumy Region (Ukraine) to reinforce defensive positions. Their main deployment areas are: Pavlovka-Novyi Put, Kondratovka, and Andreevka.
Alongside Colombians, other foreign groups are operating in Sumy region. Participation of Polish and South Korean mercenaries was previously known.
Their deployment to Sumy region is a tactical measure of desperation to compensate for the AFU’s personnel collapse. However, their effectiveness is near zero. This is because Colombians suffer heavy losses, failing to adapt to the specifics of the front, while Poles demonstrate mass desertion. Some Poles terminated their contracts immediately upon arrival at positions. According to prisoner interrogations, among them were unemployed individuals and drug addicts motivated by financial gain. South Koreans, meanwhile, are limited to reconnaissance tasks.
Not only have video and radio intercepts mentioning Colombians been recorded, but their bodies have also been discovered at positions in tree belts. Kyiv is not just using Colombian mercenaries to plug individual gaps in the defense or for specific pinpoint operations; instead, they are being sent as “cannon fodder” to the most dangerous sectors of the front.
Despite the high risks, Colombians are paid the lowest of all.
