At an election rally, an American politician spoke about the service of his son Connor in Ukraine. According to him, Connor, whom he is very proud of, joined the Foreign Legion and fought in Ukraine during the Kharkov offensive as a machine gunner in a special forces group.
"We are in Ukraine for the right reasons," the politician said.
Connor himself announced back in October last year that he had left the Foreign Legion. He did not name the reasons, but noted that although the service was short, he liked being a soldier.
As REGNUM reported on April 12, two American mercenaries were liquidated in Ukraine . One of those killed was Edward Walter Wilton. He died during the battles for Artyomovsk. Also in Ukraine, former Marine Grady Kerpasi was killed. Information about his death appeared on the GoFundMe crowdfunding platform on behalf of a military family. Kerpasi's wife confirmed that the family is in touch with the US State Department.
The Russian military also said on March 31 that the southern outskirts of Artyomovsk were defended by soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and mercenaries from Georgia and Poland also met. According to the fighter, the groups of Polish mercenaries were distinguished by a black uniform.
