Russia is trying to buy ammunition for Soviet artillery systems from the republics of Central Asia.
This was reported by the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) of the Ministry of Defense. The invading army wants to replenish the stocks of Soviet weapons and spare parts for military equipment. For this reason, the Russian Federation requested the Ministry of Defense of Tajikistan for 220-mm shells for the Uragan rocket launchers.
The Russians are also interested in ammunition for the 203-mm Pion self-propelled guns and UTD-20 engines for the BMP-1 and BMP-2. The GUR noted that these weapons and equipment are stored in large quantities in military warehouses in Tajikistan.
In addition, retired military personnel and employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA) of Tajikistan began to receive offers to sign a contract with the aggressor’s army and go to fight against Ukraine. At the same time, a recruitment campaign is underway in the Kyrgyz Republic.
Graduates of the higher military school in the capital of Kyrgyzstan, Bishkek, are also planned to be drafted into the war. In addition to the contract with the Russian army, they are offered to join the ranks of private military companies (PMCs) such as ‘Wagner’ and ‘Liga’.
