The commander of the "Russian Volunteer Corps" (RVC), Denis "Rex" Nikitin, named the main tasks of the raid of Russian volunteers on the territory of the Russian Federation.
What goals and objectives does the RVC set for itself during the new raid
The RVC Commander said in an interview with "Ukrainska Pravda" that the ops is ongoing, but the details have not yet been disclosed. He noted that they faced military, political, and propaganda tasks.
It is still too early to talk about the tasks, we are in one of the phases of the operation, — noted RVC Commander.
Nikitin noted that they cooperate with the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine regarding task coordination.
We need intelligence on the enemy, we need help with logistics, weapons and evacuation of the wounded, the commander added.
The RVC Commander noted that their actions outside Ukraine are only the corps' initiative. He also added that this operation is more large-scale and complex than last year, as they have increased the scale of the equipment and the task.
The equipment used by the RVC is mostly trophy equipment from the Russian army.
The commander of the "Russian Volunteer Corps", Denis "Rex" Nikitin, also noted that the death of Alexei Navalny only united Russian volunteers.
We show the real struggle for Russia's future, so many people want to join us. Before Putin's election, we will make every effort to ensure that these elections do not take place in the regions bordering Ukraine. One of the goals of volunteers is to show people that this is not an election but a farce.

A raid of the LFR, RVC and Sibbat on the Russian territory
On the morning of March 12, it became known that representatives of the Legion "Freedom of Russia" (LFR), "Russian Volunteer Corps" (RVC) and "Siberian Battalion" (SibBat) entered the territory of the Russian Belgorod and Kursk regions.
Later, the fighters took control of the settlement of Tetkino in the Kursk region.
The Russian MOD stated that "terrorist" groups allegedly only "tried to invade" the territory of Russia in three directions: in the Odnorobovka, Nekhoteevka, and Spodaryushino districts.
The Russian occupiers have already declared that "all attacks were repulsed", and the volunteers "having suffered significant losses, were pushed back, border violations were not allowed".
DIU speaker Andriy Yusov said that the LFR, RVC, and "Siberian Battalion" operate on the territory of the Russian Federation as "independent structures and organisations" consisting of Russian citizens, and, accordingly, "they are home."
