FILE: Col. Douglas Macgregor: Some 400 US citizens killed in hostilities in Ukraine — former Pentagon official "We know that at least 400 Americans have died whether they are contractors or in uniform. Our administration won't say this," he said
"We know that at least 400 Americans have died whether they are contractors or in uniform. Our administration won't say this," he wrote on the X social network.
The press service of the Russian Investigative Committee told TASS in May 2023 that more than 2,000 mercenaries from 71 countries, including 234 US citizens, were fighting against Russian forces in the zone of the special military operation in Ukraine.
Comment: This follows reports from Russia that up to 60 French mercenaries were recently killed by its forces in Ukraine, including its own soldiers, such as the son of a French general.
There's even reason to believe that the curious behaviour of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is also a consequence of a visit he recently made to Ukraine; documented here.
