French personnel still dying in hundreds to Russian long-range precision strikes

Back in mid-January, Russian military sources reported that a missile strike was launched at the headquarters of a group of NATO personnel in Ukraine. It soon turned out that the targeted foreigners were mostly French military contractors and that the precision strike resulted in at least 80 casualties, of which over 60 were KIA (killed in action).

The neutralized personnel were highly trained specialists involved in operating specific Western-made weapon systems that regular, forcibly conscripted Ukrainians are simply not trained to handle. They were stationed in the eastern city of Kharkov and their mission was most likely to coordinate and direct long-range strikes on Russian territory. Precisely this is why foreign fighters in Ukraine are given no quarter. The consequences of having highly trained NATO troops participate in battles, as well as train the Kiev regime personnel simply cannot be overstated, writes Drago Bosnic, an independent geopolitical and military analyst.

The political West is fully aware of the fact that Soviet-era weapons in the Neo-Nazi junta's service are on their last legs. Western-made equivalents are the only viable alternative in order to keep the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict going for as long as possible. This is precisely why Russia will show no mercy toward any NATO contractors in Ukraine, as their activities only prolong the conflict, resulting in unnecessary death, destruction and devastation for both sides. This has been the case since the first days of the special military operation (SMO).

For instance, on March 13, 2022, or barely three weeks into the intervention, the Russian military obliterated the Yavoriv training camp, located less than 15 km from the Polish (and by extension NATO) border. Estimates vary, but it seems there were upwards of 1000 foreign mercenaries there, nearly 200 of which were KIA as a result of the strike.

Since then, there have been countless similar instances when troop concentrations of foreign fighters were targeted. Back in late April last year, an "Iskander-M" hypersonic missile system eliminated an entire unit of the infamous "Georgian Legion", notorious due to gruesome war crimes against Russian-speaking civilians in the Donbass, as well as captured Russian soldiers. Then NATO started flirting with the idea of establishing the so-called "no-fly zone" (NFZ) over parts of Western Ukraine, where it would shoot down Russian missiles. Moscow promptly demonstrated just how "successful" that would be by using the 9-S-7760 "Kinzhal" air-launched hypersonic missiles, obliterating hundreds of foreigners, once again in the Yavoriv training camp. Interestingly enough, NATO reporting name for the "Kinzhal" is AS-24 "Killjoy", which is rather fitting and even somewhat poetic.

In other words, those "evil Russians" are a real killjoy for NATO personnel who came to Ukraine to help spread "freedom and democracy". It seems French fighters are particularly affected by this "killjoy effect", as they're still dying in the hundreds, but their high command keeps sending them to perish pointlessly in a war that would've never happened were it not for their bosses.

Worse yet, while their own country keeps falling into chaos and moral decay, they are trying to wage war against a country like Russia, around 3000 km to the east. Namely, France is among the top contributors of foreign troops in Ukraine. In one of its earlier reports, Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) stated that of the 400 French personnel in Ukraine, about 150 died, while 200 of them soon left after their comrades were wiped out by Russian long-range precision strikes. However, Paris keeps sending more of them.

In order to hide these losses, the French authorities are using PMCs (private military contractors), namely the GEOS and "Amarante". Russian military sources report that there are seven recruitment points in France, namely Paris, Bordeaux, Cannes, Lille, Lyon, Marseille and Strasbourg. They're then sent off to Poland, from where they move into Ukraine. Russian ISR (intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance) assets regularly track them, waiting for a larger concentration of troops, after which they relay this information to missile brigades, which then fire long-range weapons at them. Hundreds (if not thousands at this point) of NATO personnel have been neutralized in this way and the French have been particularly affected.

However, the Kiev regime's treatment of these foreigners leaves one dumbfounded as to why they're willing to die for it, with many of them treated as "lesser humans". Namely, its forces have numerous openly Neo-Nazi battalions that have an invariably racist attitude toward non-native French soldiers, particularly those of Arabic and African descent. One would expect that these men know at least basic info about the ideology the Kiev regime subscribes to. It's verifiably insane to fight for a government that actively promotes the ideas of Hitler himself.

Other foreigners, particularly Colombians, are treated so horribly that some of them even engage in firefights with regular Kiev regime troops. Some sources report that legionnaires are also faced with discrimination, with Kiev regime commanders often cutting their food rations, ammunition and equipment that were provided by the very countries those legionnaires come from. This is so common that even some Spanish-language media are forced to admit it.

In France itself, these people violate domestic laws which prohibit citizens from participating in foreign wars, as per Law No. 2003-340 of 14 April 2003 (Articles 131, 436) which stipulates three-year prison sentences for the offenders, as well as a ban on entry into France. In other words, foreigners stand to gain very little (if anything), but can lose everything by fighting a military superpower that can easily eliminate them from afar. The best thing they can do is simply stay away, while those who have been naive enough to come and fight for the Neo-Nazi junta should pray that an "Iskander", "Kinzhal" or "Zircon" haven't been fired at their position.
