Ukrainian military captured militants from Nepal

Russia recruited more than 15 thousand Nepalese for the war in Ukraine.

This comes after the Russian government announced favorable service conditions for foreign fighters joining the army in 2023.

CNN reports this, citing its sources.

It is reported that the contract provides for a salary of at least 2,000 US dollars.

The Nepalese government says that about 200 citizens are fighting on the Russian side and that at least 13 Nepalese have been killed in the war zone.

But lawmakers and human rights activists in Nepal say these figures are grossly underestimated.

According to them, from 14,000 to 15,000 Nepalese are fighting on the side of the Russian Federation.
