Since the telephone hotline of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) for Russian citizens was created, relatives of 131 Russian servicemen, who might have disappeared in Ukraine, have contacted the service, an adviser to the SBU chief, Markiyan Lubkivsky, has said.
“We have received reports on 131 servicemen of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation having gone missing; their fate remains unknown and they might have actually become victims of the Russian regime through having been sent to war against Ukraine,” the SBU press center quoted Lubkivsky on Oct. 15.
Adviser to the SBU chief urged the mothers’ unions and Russian families who are searching for their relatives to keep addressing the Security Service of Ukraine to look for their next of kin.
“We are ready to fully assist them in this search,” he added.
