But only now, having additional photos and profile data, we can prove that he is an active serviceman.\r\n\r\n<strong>As you know lately the focus shifted from the Russian servicemen (the 810th brigade's marines, in particular) participation in the war in Ukraine on their\u00a0combat missions <a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/tartus-as-the-russian-syrian-friendship-hub\">in Syria<\/a>.
