Russian-Ukrainian frontline "net red blogger" Kadyrov
Since Russia's special military operations against Ukraine, the leader of the Russian Republic of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov Jr., and his Chechen security forces have been particularly striking.
On February 25, the day after Russia announced special military operations against Ukraine, Kadyrov Jr. held a "10,000-man pledge conference" in Grozny, the capital of Chechnya, announcing that 70,000 Chechens had volunteered to fight for Russia. The next day, Kadyrov Jr. posted a video of Chechen security forces soldiers raising flags at Ukrainian checkpoints via social media, confirming for the first time that his troops had participated in military operations in Ukraine. Since then, Kadyrov Jr. has regularly updated on social media the latest news of their participation in military operations and humanitarian assistance in Ukraine, becoming a "net red blogger" on the Ukrainian front.
Chechnya
The Chechen Republic, or Chechnya for short, is an autonomous republic under the jurisdiction of the North Caucasus Federal District of the Russian Federation.
It is located in the mountains of the North Caucasus, bordered by the Republic of Ingushetia and the Republic of North Ossetia to the west, the Stavropol Territory to the northwest, the Republic of Dagestan to the east, and Georgia to the south. The capital is Grozny.
The Chechen Republic of Ichkeria clashed with the Russian army on many occasions, the biggest of which broke out within 10 years of the collapse of the Soviet Union, which eventually wiped out the illegal Chechen armed forces. But skirmishes occur from time to time.
