Journalists called the numbers in more than a dozen personnel centers with a fictional prehistory. Everyone who answered confirmed that everything was as usual. From Kaliningrad in the west to Krasnodar in the south, no one believed that the group was dissolving. In Murmansk, a woman at the Viking Sports Club confirmed that she was still recording the soldiers to send to the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine. "Yes, we are recruiting.
The list of contacts of the group is mainly based on fighting clubs, including martial arts and boxing clubs. Several people who took the phone emphasized that new participants sign contracts with the group of mercenaries, not from the Russian Defense Ministry. "This is absolutely nothing to do with the Ministry of Defense. Nothing stopped, we continue to recruit," the man explained in the Sparta Sports Club in Volgograd.
