“Yesterday, for the first day, we began to record new arrivals, that is, reserves are constantly approaching them, new groups have been noticed that have a different shape, and the most important distinguishing feature is not blue and yellow armbands, but green ones,” he told RT correspondent Vlad Andrice.
The Russian side, Martynov added, suggests that these may be the so-called Ichkerians, or Georgian battalions or formations.
“They have a completely different tactic, we understand it.
We are already working on them quite successfully,” he said.
Earlier, the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, published a video in which a Ukrainian prisoner of war reports about 200-300 foreign mercenaries who are in Mariupol.
