Russian troops continue to throw foreign mercenaries into assaults - this time a group of Kenyan citizens. This is reported by UNN with reference to the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
Details
One of those eliminated by the Ukrainian Defense Forces is Kenyan citizen Nyambura Eric Mwangi, born in 2003. According to intelligence, he arrived in Russian Yaroslavl on October 23-24, 2025, along with three of his compatriots Wanjiru Joseph Kamau, Karithi Joel Ngure, and Kibet Ronald Kipkurui.
The Kenyans signed contracts with the Russian army, after which they were sent to a training center where they underwent training for only a week and a half, the GUR noted.
Then Mwangi received the position of radio telephone operator and was sent to the front. However, he did not serve in his specialty, as he was transferred to an assault unit, and later sent to combat operations in the area of the settlement of Borova in the Kharkiv region.
According to preliminary data, Mwangi died as a result of a Ukrainian mortar strike while trying to overcome a kill zone, the GUR added.
Despite the agreements reached by the Kremlin with individual African countries on stopping the recruitment of their citizens, this process has not stopped and continues. The personal data of 2,965 citizens of African countries who signed a contract with the armed forces of the Russian Federation have been established
