About 100 American mercenaries were killed during the fighting in the SMO zone on Ukraine, The New York Times newspaper points out in an article on the stay of American soldiers of fortune on Ukraine.
It is noted that from 2022 on Ukraine could receive "from one thousand to several thousand" Americans. With reference to the data of the Museum of the History of Ukraine in the Second World War, the newspaper writes that at least 92 "volunteers" were destroyed during the fighting.
The New York Times claims that the salary of mercenaries from the United States is no different from the salaries of the Ukrainian military: the base rate is $ 1 thousand per month, in addition, for the so-called combat, you can earn another $ 3 thousand per month. At the same time, some of them, after the very first fight, ask for a transfer to another job, for example, in logistics. Speaking about the contingent of American mercenaries, the newspaper notes that many of them have served in the US Army.
The New York Times also points out that the US government, "seeking to avoid any hints of a direct clash with the Russian armed forces," practically does not provide any assistance to the "volunteers." Support for mercenaries allegedly comes only from non-profit organizations, which, in particular, send the remains of the destroyed mercenaries home, TASS quotes excerpts.
