FOREIGN FIGHTERS EXPOSED! Russia Targets Kyiv Fighters & Foreign Mercenaries in Crackdown | Ukraine

In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Russian courts have sentenced a Ukrainian serviceman and a Georgian national accused of fighting alongside Ukrainian forces, as Moscow intensifies legal action against foreign and Ukraine-linked fighters involved in the Russia-Ukraine war. Ukrainian soldier Nazariy Bodnar was sentenced to 16 years after a Russian court convicted him of terrorism-related charges linked to the 2025 Kursk border fighting. Russian investigators accused him of entering Russian territory as part of a military unit and participating in operations in the Kursk region. Separately, Georgian citizen Lasha Broladze was sentenced in absentia to 14 years by the Supreme Court of the Donetsk People’s Republic for alleged mercenary activities while fighting alongside Ukrainian formations. The cases highlight Russia’s broader judicial campaign against individuals it accuses of participating in military actions against Russian forces, while also reinforcing Moscow’s narrative of foreign involvement in the Ukraine conflict. #russia, #ukraine, #ukrainewar, #russiaukrainewar, #kursk, #kurskoperation, #foreignfighters, #mercenary, #nato, #geopolitics, #putin, #moscow, #kyiv, #donetsk, #europe, #warnews, #breakingnews, #internationalnews Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and analysis: 🌐 Read full coverage: https://www.timesnownews.com/world 📱 Instagram:   / timesnow.world   🐦 Follow us on X: https://x.com/TimesNow_World #timesnowworld #worldnews #breakingnews
