The DIU comments on the LSR actions in Russia
The DIU speaker, Andrii Yusov, stated that the Legion "Freedom of Russia", RVC and "Siberian Battalion" operate on the territory of the Russian Federation as "independent structures and organisations" consisting of Russian citizens and, accordingly, "are at home."
They carry out their political tasks and programs. We are probably talking about a joint operation of these units on the territory of the Russian Federation.

LFR, RVC and "Siberian Battalion" entered Russian territory
On the morning of Mar. 12, units of the Legion "Freedom of Russia", the Russian Volunteer Corps (RVC) and the "Siberian Battalion" entered the territory of the Graivoron district of the Belgorod region, as well as the territory of the Kursk region of the Russian Federation.
The Legion said that "they will take Russian land from the regime centimetre by centimetre."
Russians will sleep soundly, they won't be afraid of the doorbell, they will say what they think without fear. Russians will vote for whom they want, not for whom they have. Russians will live freely. We are going to the elections. Wait for us!
The former deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, Ilya Ponomaryov, who is associated with the activities of the Legion "Freedom of Russia," said that fighters entirely control the border settlement of Lozova Rudka in the Belgorod region.
