Foreign volunteers have been fighting in Ukraine since February 2022. Since then, many have returned home or been killed.

The story in my head of the Reddit Legion is a bunch of like 50 dorks got duped after /r/ukraine jumped from 10k to 1mil subscribers and went to volunteer, all got pushed into the same barracks, and then Russia deleted them by tracing phone signals. I have no idea if that has any truth to it at all, but I almost don't want to be corrected
Russia hitting foreign legion barracks has definitely happened on numerous occasions, and at least a few times even western media reported that it was by tracing cell signals.
The morons even posted pictures of themselves on Reddit.
They posted geotagged videos of them playing orchestra music
I'm pretty sure that exact one got annihilated the next day
Yes, that was it! Thank you. I hope the updoots were worth it for them.
I believe the volunteer forces split into two groups, and they didn't invite anyone who was a mall ninja to the second group. They didn't want their lives to be trusted to the kind of people you're talking about.
Russia denazifying, Ukraine deredditizing
