A squad of Chechen special forces 'hunters' has been unleashed in Ukraine to detain or kill a set of specific Ukrainian officials.
Each soldier was reportedly given a special 'deck of cards' with Ukrainian officials' photos and descriptions on them, a Moscow Telegram channel with links to the security establishment reported.
The list is of officials and security officers suspected of 'crimes' by the Russian Investigative Committee, the report added.
It came as Ukraine's president admitted he is 'target number one' for Russian assassins in his capital, while his family is 'the number two goal' for Putin's hitmen.
The Chechen squad is thought to be in a Ukrainian forest and was allegedly given an 'order to kill' if those on the wanted list could not be detained.
...State TV in Chechnya reported that Ramzan Kadyrov, 45, the republic's leader and a close Putin ally, had visited his forces in Ukraine.
The Chechens are believed to be from the South battalion of the Federal Guard Service, based in Chechnya.

This was my concern. No “Slavic Brotherhood” here.
Pooty-Poot needs to hunker in a bunker too.
How funny I still have a deck of cards with all the jihadi pics on them from desert storm when we went into Iraq!!!
muslimes unleashed on Christians... no quarter
I’m not sure there’s a specific name for it but I have a deck of cards from the Iraqi war with Sadam Hussein and other characters on the face cards.
Just more of the same propaganda.
I thought the Chechens hated the Russians. Why are they fighting for Russia ?
The Russian Empire used Cossacks. Now Putin gets to use Chechens as his shock troops.
Putin used the carrot (after the stick). Gronzy is rebuilt. Putin gave the Governor of Chechnya a lot of money in return for his allegiance to the Russian Federation.
Chechens are probably more loyal to Putin than any other group in Russia.
Not going to turn out well..
in addition to sitting politicians etc., he implied in his speech that measures would be taken against certain others involved in older crimes.
We had those in Iraq!
seems like a move driven by desperation, not strength... a slender ray of hope? even if they accomplish their task, others seem likely to take the places of the patriots captured...
It’s like he’s copying Bush word for word. From invading a sovereign country under false pretext to a failed ‘shock and awe’ campaign to the deck of cards… all for the purpose of effecting a regime change and installing a puppet govt. Pretty soon they will be in a quagmire.
I only wish we had a "puppet government" in Iraq.

How many of those pictured are alive?
but put a lil pigfat on yer rounds when hunting muslimes and that’s a big nono...
I have the same deck of cards. It also has “Made in Chian” printed on the outside. I always thought that was an omen of sorts.
