A new group of fighters flew from Chechnya to the SVO zone.

Another group of volunteers trained at the Russian Special Forces University departed from Grozny airport for the military operation zone in Ukraine.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," Chechen authorities regularly report sending groups of fighters from the republic to the military operation zone in Ukraine. 61,221 fighters have been sent from Chechnya to participate in the military operation in Ukraine, including 22,321 volunteers. Of these, 13,000 fighters are currently in the combat zone, Ramzan Kadyrov reported on August 5.

The data on the total number of security forces sent from Chechnya does not include soldiers who have left the republic, are in barracks, are on leave, or have left the combat zone as part of rotation. Since November 2022, Kadyrov has accompanied each report of the deployment of another group with a call for people to contact the Grozny mayor's office and sign up as volunteers, regularly emphasizing that the flow of volunteers is not declining and there are no problems recruiting them. He also regularly reports that many of the volunteers are residents of other regions of Russia.

Another group of fighters departed on a special flight to the SVO zone. The flight departed from Grozny airport, Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov announced on his Telegram channel on December 4.

Each of the fighters completed an accelerated combat training course at the Russian Special Forces University in Gudermes, the regional head added.

The Russian Special Forces University is a training center established by Ramzan Kadyrov in Gudermes where volunteers are trained for deployment to the war zone and where the Akhmat special forces unit is based. The "Caucasian Knot" has prepared a report "What is taught at the Putin Special Forces University in Chechnya".
