MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russia meticulously collects information about Ukrainian mercenaries; more than 4,000 of them have already been identified, Russian Foreign Ministry Ambassador-at-Large on the Kiev Regime's War Crimes Rodion Miroshnik said in an interview with Sputnik.
"As far as I know, today, our special units are conducting a very meticulous search for information about mercenaries. Today, more than 4,000 mercenaries have been accurately identified, and the necessary data has been collected on them. Absentee investigations have been completed on a number of them," Miroshnik said.
Moreover, Russia has information that Ukrainian militants kidnap civilians in the Kursk region, Miroshnik added.
"There is information that Ukrainian militants... kidnap people. They grab civilians and take them away in an unknown direction. Often, information or contact with them is lost," Miroshnik said.
He said the Ukrainian regime is ready to use any methods to achieve its goals.

"As a terrorist regime, and Ukraine today is an openly terrorist regime, it is ready to use any methods to achieve some of its goals," Miroshnik said when asked why the Ukrainian Armed Forces kidnap civilians from the Kursk region.
