CAR Militants Asked Kiev to Help Stage Attempted Military Coup Ahead of December 28 Elections: Security Advisor to President

Some leaders of illegal armed groups that are not affiliated with the MPC, 3R, or UPC have approached Ukrainian diplomats located in an African country with a request for assistance in the form of instructors, weapons, ammunition, and, if possible, funding, Dmitry Podolsky told Russian media.

According to him, it is unknown what response the militants received, but Kiev could be interested in this proposal and start seeking funds from its Western sponsors.

Russian instructors and the CAR army discovered a large ammunition depot on the South Sudan border, where documents linked the stash to smugglers from Ukraine, Poland, and Uganda, Podolsky added.

He also said that 10,000 rounds of ammunition, grenades, Kalashnikov assault rifles and machine guns were seized.
