A small number: GUR reacted to recruit prisoners in

According to the representative of Ukrainian intelligence Andriy Yusov, the overwhelming number of convicted women in Russia who went to fight against Ukraine - the so -called "volunteers". In Russia, women who agreed to participate in the war against Ukraine began to release. This is stated in The New York Times. According to sources of journalists, several women were taken out of prison near St. Petersburg by military warders.

The spokesman of the department Andriy Yusov in a comment to Liga. net said that in general the number of such women is not significant.
