Russia's AKC recruitment machine targets civilians with cash incentives
Le SoirLO·RU·3 days ago
A Moscow agency's leaked guide reveals a structured recruitment campaign to enlist foreign men into Russian military service, offering 100,000 rubles per successful recruit. The document instructs recruiters on vetting candidates and conducting phone interviews, indicating an organized effort to expand foreign recruitment beyond earlier reports of African fighters. This suggests Russia is intensifying manpower sourcing amid ongoing conflict, with potential implications for foreign nationals' involvement and international legal scrutiny.
