The first batch of foreign fighters has begun to arrive in Ukraine to fight on the side of Kiev's side, according to Vice.

Vice published an interview with a former British soldier who arrived in Ukraine, making his way from the UK to Poland and taking a taxi to cross the Ukrainian border.

"I think there's obviously a lot of Western bullets going into the war, but there's probably not enough people to fire the bullets. It's important everybody does their bit to help, really," the man, an air force specialist, said.

Hundreds of foreigners, including US citizens, are currently on their way to Ukraine to fight on the side of the pro-West Kiev.

After being left to face Russia alone by the US, NATO, and other alleged supporters, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, a Jew himself, attempted to mobilize Jews around the world to fight in his war.

“I am now addressing all the Jews of the world. Don’t you see what is happening? That is why it is very important that millions of Jews around the world not remain silent right now,” he said on Wednesday. “Nazism is born in silence. So shout about killings of civilians. Shout about the murders of Ukrainians.”

Taking an alarmist approach towards the conflict, Zelensky cried Holocaust II, accusing Putin and the Russian army of genocide. “They know nothing about our capital. About our history. But they have an order to erase our history. Erase our country. Erase us all,” he said.

As the Draconian Western-led sanctions on Russia exacerbate the economic crisis worldwide, and as Russian troops gain more ground despite the influx of military aid into Ukraine, exposing US direct involvement in bio-labs spread across Eastern Europe and the insurgence of neo-Nazi groups… How will things unfold?
