Soldiers from South Ossetia refused to fight in Ukraine, about 300 people have already returned home. The reason was the style of combat operations on the part of the Russian command.

This is reported by the publication "Mediazone".

It is reported that some South Ossetian servicemen refused to participate in the combat operations on the territory of Ukraine and returned to Tskhinvali on their own. Former "president" Eduard Kokoity confirmed this information.

According to the source of "Mediazone", about 300 servicemen returned. The situation exacerbated also because the Russian command did not allow them to take bodies of the dead from the battlefield.

Earlier, British intelligence reported that Russia was redeploying some of its forces from the occupied regions of Georgia for an offensive in Ukraine.
