Nato says 1,000
The new Rebel Commander says 3,000
Kiev says 20,000

And you wonder why people are saying “Cry Wolf” and Ukraine in the same sentence?

There are lots of nations nationals fighting in Ukraine, as well. Poles and a couple of Americans fighting on both sides. The Caucusus, AT LEAST 50 anti-fascist Greeks, some French ex-naval officers for the rebels. And those are just the ones we know about.
