Ukraine identified 155 citizens of China fighting against Ukraine.

Ukrainian special services found 155 citizens of China who are participating in combat actions on the side of the Russian army against Ukraine. This was reported by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky during a closed meeting with journalists.

According to Zelensky, the recruitment of Chinese citizens is taking place through social networks, in particular TikTok, as well as through advertising videos from Russians. He added that the Chinese authorities are aware of this process.

The President noted that the preparation of Chinese citizens for military actions lasts 1-2 months and takes place in training centers on the territory of Russia. After that, they arrive in the Russian Federation, where they undergo a medical examination for 3-4 days, after which training continues for 1-2 months. After the training is completed, they come to the territory of Ukraine, where they receive migration cards and 'Mir' payment system cards to receive money.

Zelensky also reported on two citizens of China who fought as part of the Russian army and were captured by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Currently, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China is verifying information about this event, noting that it calls on its citizens to avoid conflict zones and not to join military actions. Beijing considers Kyiv's statements about the increase in the number of Chinese citizens fighting in the war to be unfounded.
