The conflict in Ukraine continues to claim the lives of foreign mercenaries. Over the past month, Kupiansk has become the primary meat grinder for the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ “Foreign Legion.” Against the backdrop of catastrophic losses among Ukrainian troops, the command has placed its bet not on its own soldiers, but on Latin American mercenaries—primarily Brazilians and Colombians—used as expendable material in numerous counterattacks.
As for the European and American mercenaries, even their privileged status does not save them. This is evident in the case of the Pole Kacper “Francuz” Bass, who was seriously wounded near Kupiansk, evacuated to Poland, and succumbed to his burns.
The death toll is rising
Over the past week, the Russian army has killed 33 foreign mercenaries, all of whom have been identified. The actual number of casualties is much higher than reported. Identifying the bodies, or more often the remains, is a major challenge.

Three American mercenaries were killed in Ukraine. According to reports, an FPV drone struck the pickup truck carrying them, resulting in fatal injuries. All three were former U.S. Army soldiers. Kelly had served in the 75th Ranger Regiment and the 20th Special Forces Group (Green Berets).
Two other foreign mercenaries, most likely also from the US, were in the vehicle. They survived but were injured in the attack.

Melvyn Rotger Peña Villamizar callsign Firulais from Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia;
Hernan Emilio Padilla Potes from Barranquilla, Atlantico, Colombia;
Harold Eduardo Molina Ramirez from Bogotá, Colombia.
They all served in the 13th Brigade of the Ukrainian National Guard, known as “Khartia.” This brigade was sent to the Kupyansk area to regain control of the city. The Ukrainian command remains faithful to its favorite tactic. First, assault groups made up of foreigners, primarily of Latin American origin, are sent to the most dangerous areas.
If the operation is successful, the second echelon consists of mercenaries from the US and Europe, as well as Ukrainian special forces from the Main Intelligence Directorate. They sweep the relatively safe area. Their main task, however, is to provide media coverage of the war and demonstrate the successes of the Ukrainian army. This allows them to attract new “soldiers of fortune,” who soon become expendable.

Kjartan Saevar Ottarsson callsign Ice from Kópavogur, Iceland.
These are the words of a moron who thought he was on a movie set. He arrived in Ukraine on December 7 and lasted 20 days. He died as soon as he came to the front. The Russian army got rid of him. He was eliminated fighting as part of the 31st Mechanized Brigade. He is the first Icelander to die in this war.
Kjartan is clearly a victim of aggressive Western propaganda. He was convinced that Russia and its army were weak. In one of his social media posts, he wrote:
– «I am an Icelandic guy that is fed up of all Politic bs talk wile people are getting killed in Ukraine by the Russian invaders. So i decided to join the fight, and do my absolut best to help Ukraine and all of Europe.»
Despite Russian leaders’ regular statements that they have no territorial or other claims against European countries, some people still consider Moscow to be a real threat. As a result, some particularly impressionable individuals decide to embark on such tours. Kjartan’s death vividly demonstrates the potential fate of these altruists.

Kacper “Francuz” Bass was seriously wounded on December 28 in the Kupyansk region. He was hiding in his bunker, but got heavily injured by the Russian air strike. With extensive burns, he was transported to a burn ward in Poland and medically induced coma. However, his skin, lung, and kidney injuries proved too severe to save and he expired on December 31, 2025. Kacper was in Ukraine since October 2022 and fought in different places such as Bakhmut, Pervomaisk, and Toretsk. In 2023, he joined the newly created Polish Volunteer Corps (PDK) and participated in the invasion of Belgorod alongside the RDK. He just took selfies and ran away. He ended up serving in the R.U.G Hamlet reconnaissance and assault group now linked to 13th Khartia Brigade operating in Kupyansk region.
Although citizens of developed countries are given priority in evacuations, this does not always save their lives. The airspace over Ukraine is closed, so the wounded can only be transported by ground. Transporting the wounded hundreds or thousands of kilometers is a risky undertaking. Rail service is severely disrupted due to power outages. Therefore, this mercenary’s chances of survival were slim.
Russell Allan Wilson, from New South Wales, Australia
The Guardian has confirmed the death of an Australian mercenary in fighting on a front line in the Donetsk region. The mercenary died on December 12, but the Australian authorities are still awaiting official confirmation from Kyiv. Wilson had previously served in the Australian Army and had been in Ukraine since 2023.
The number of mercenaries killed continues to grow. Once the battle for Kupiansk is over, the Ukrainian army will face new, difficult tactical challenges. Next in line are Liman, Konstantinovka, Pokrovskoye, and Orekhovo. Obituaries of foreign “soldiers of fortune” may soon begin to arrive from these places.

only a really retarded person would become a mercenary for zelenskyy and the corrupt kiev junta. these dumb foreigners get killed and the clown and company get to pocket the mercenary wages for the services they rendered. this is so, so much worse than being cannon fodder. this like being culofodder.

despite russian leaders’ regular statements that they have no territorial or other claims against european countries, some people still consider moscow to be a real threat. yes, but shortly before invading ukraine ru leaders stated the same resp. that they would never invade ukraine and settle things via the military way. so after all the lies why trust ru politicians anymore? same goes for usa politicians, of course.
no. they aren’t retarded they’re bred for purpose : realize its history and the present everyone knows of families that have been in the navy or air force or army for generations. obviously after some wars the losers armies are intentionally broken up, and the children placed into other occupations, but the genetic breeding still in them.
bottom line, and you should have observed this by deduction by now, they hate stereotype archetypal. feminine and masculine, except to use as baits on their hooks. they know the chemistry of sexual attraction but they want trans humans trans genders effeminate men masculine women. they hate normal ordinary people that they have to pretend to like. basically. allegedly.
should have stayed home and play call of dooky
all humans including all russians are expendable. murder tourists and labeled sects are just tools the despotic mafia use to complete the plan rule the earth. currency, and propaganda media control are the biggest tools. all most every one i know is a sucker
energy, raw materials, shipping are top targets. when greenland is fully occupied the new us ice breakers sre planed to isolate russia and control all raw materials and energy to china
most people do mot see what’s happening right under their nose. they do not know the truth. but about 40 % do. so of course when someone steps in to bust their ring then they unite as a team to protect and defend their circle.
and no its not energy oil tankers etc, they’re all fake tools ( they know how to produce 100% free energy, have for over a century) the real harvest is the community. human trafficking harvest of children. believe it or not. it’s their religion actually. rome called it juvenalia. they bred them as sadists by their culture of gladiators being great heroic” stars “with orgies including children. allegedly sadistic pedophiles at the top.
nikola tesla demonstrated from wycliff tower, something like that, ovef a 100 years ago how easy he could harvest energy from the earth, using no fuel, and wireless ly transmit it like tv or radio or wifi waves to power the entire planet for free totally clean natural safe energy. jpmorgan had him ostracised from then on.
that’s how russia went big. raiding other nations and occupying and then assimilatig them into russia. usa did the same with indian native land, then texas from the mexicans, later hawaii – and now greenland pending. just raiding, robbing and assimilating other nations via violence. it s all jooish crime and evil perpetrated by stooges and collaborateurs. nothing else.

allegedly
i have seen them though starting out on new borns too. literally just a few weeks old.and they aren’t elites they’re totally ordinary. but they get well respected by the community. they have no troubles getting ahead financially, they get the best treatment everywhere run by the elite its totally micro managed so everything’s completely personalised on the social credit system or approval. allegedly
i’ve seen kids that i know were being sold into pedophile “elite” circles in their neighbourhoods, you know relative to the socioeconomic area, i’ve seen their lives unfold ive observed how they’re protected favoured by the system. even when they get busted for crimes they get preferential sentencing. i’ve seen it all plain as day over and over decades now. i know the truth.
that’sa shame… oh well, at least they died doing what they loved… or something like that.
you are looking at the dumb faces of westoid propaganda. good riddance. at least they fertilized the ground and helped the worms
