  • Russian recruitment ads have appeared on the Avito website seeking individuals for service in "the rear of the special military operation" in China and Belarus.
  • The ads, noted by a Russian publication, are nearly identical in their wording.
  • This development suggests Russia is seeking personnel for support roles related to the conflict in Ukraine from outside its borders.

Russia is reportedly recruiting personnel for support roles in China and Belarus, advertised as service in the "rear of the special military operation" in Ukraine. Online ads posted on the Russian classifieds site Avito have surfaced, seeking individuals for these positions.

The campaign, as observed by a Russian media outlet, features nearly verbatim advertisements. This suggests a coordinated effort to source personnel for logistical or support functions related to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

The placement of these ads in Belarus and China indicates Russia's potential need to bolster its operational capacity or support infrastructure beyond its own borders. The specific nature of the "rear" roles remains unspecified in the available information, but implies non-combatant functions.

This recruitment drive highlights the extended reach of Russia's military engagement and its efforts to secure necessary personnel for various aspects of the operation, even in neighboring countries and beyond.
