Russia opens visas for terrorists operating in Ukraine – leaked passport data of mercenaries
InformNapalm ^ | 04/04/2016 | algi

Posted on 04/04/2016 5:47:16 AM PDT by Leo Carpathian

Today, 3 April 2016, the international volunteer community InformNapalm presents the first of a series of publications on the results of hacking dozens of mailboxes of the key coordinators directing the actions of militants, Russian mercenaries and Russian troops in the Donbas region and in Syria. The data was obtained by Ukrainian hackers from the anonymous group Falcons Flame (#FF) and transferred to InformNapalm for analysis and processing. For more information about the data leak operation, see “Why the Russian Defense Ministry is on fire – InformNapalm announces a series of publications based on the leaked data.”

This investigation concerns the message retrieved from a private e-mail exchange of the Union of Donbas Volunteers organization. The persons featured in the message are foreign mercenaries fighting in the Ghost brigade. It is an illegal armed group belonging to the LPR (Luhansk People’s Republic) terrorist organization. The brigade was organized by Alexey Mozgovoy and uses left-wing slogans to give an ideological backing to their actions. Follow these links for more information on the ideology of this terrorist group – [1] [2] [3].

We are publishing here the screenshot of the message and its headers: Selection_061Selection_062

The message is addressed to two recipients: the first mailbox, draft7771@yandex.ru, belongs to Olga Kulygina, alias Hans Christian; the second mailbox, sdonbassa@yandex.ru, belongs to the organization called Union of Donbass Volunteers. The message body contains the list of passport details of citizens of Italy, Spain, India, and Finland serving in the Ghost brigade in Luhansk Oblast of Ukraine. The author writes that they need visa support for the “legal stay in the territory of the Russian Federation”. The sender of the message is Alexei Markov, e-mail address redrat@yandex.ru, deputy commander of the Ghost brigade, alias Dobriy. Detailed information on him can be found on the Mirotvorets website.

Olga Kulygina
Olga Kulygina works for the Russian propaganda channel “ANNA-News”. She calls herself a “journalist”. Kulygina is a close friend of Alexander Boroday and Igor Girkin. It is known that Igor Bezler, the terrorist leader in Gorlivka, staged a shooting of prisoners to expedite the exchange of Kulygina, who was being held by the Ukrainian government, with 15 Ukrainian POW’s, including a colonel of SBU (Ukrainian Security Service). There are grounds to believe that Kulygina is employed by FSB (Russian Security Service) operating under the guise of a journalist. A brief investigation on her can be found here [1]. Kulygina has also been listed in the Mirotvorets database. A short excerpt from the description of her activities: “Olga Kulygina played a major role in the organization of the Russian special services operations to support terrorist groups in Syria, Georgia and Ukraine. She is one of the leaders of the agent network planted by the Russian intelligence to guide Russian nationalist groups. It is used for recruitment into sabotage groups and to control the radical movements back in Russia. She participated in two military coups.”

“Union of Donbass Volunteers”

The organization was founded in the fall of 2015, allegedly to protect the rights of “volunteers” who fought in Ukraine. However, one of the main real aims of the organization is tracking and control by the Russian intelligence agencies of the people who have received combat experience in the Donbas. Our analysis of the information we received also reveals that the office is concerned with recruitment and visa support of foreign mercenaries, convalescence and rehabilitation of the injured, and survivor assistance. The close relationship with the intelligence agencies, immigration services, and border authorities of the Russian Federation is evident from the text of the request in the message.

The charter of the organization can be found here. Also of interest is the article by Vadim Fulmakht discussing the real purposes of this organization: “Why Boroday is creating the Union of Donbass Volunteers”. On October 10, 2015, Moscow hosted the inaugural congress of the Union of Donbass Volunteers, which was attended by about 600 participants of the military operations in eastern Ukraine, see [1] and [2]. The old domain name of the organization’s website was http://sdonbassa.ru (registered 2015.09.06). There is a parked page under this link now redirecting to the new website http://sddonbassa.ru (registered on 2016.01.31 and hosted in Russia https://hosting.reg.ru/). Registered address: Russia, Moscow, Nastasevsky lane, 5, bldg.3. Judging by message exchange, the office is located on the third floor.

The organization has offices throughout Russia, e.g. in St. Petersburg the coordinator is called “the Box”, telephone +79215505255. In Ufa the coordination is with NOD (National Liberation Movement), contact person Valery Ishmakov, telephone +79613671111.

Further in the article, there are copies of documents, photos and blogging of various mercenaries.

So much for “Ukrainian separatists” fighting for “independence” from Ukraine - Crimea, Eastern Ukraine Donbass region. Besides Putin’s masked green men there is a contingent of mercenaries coordinated by Russia.

". . . obtained by Ukrainian hackers from the anonymous group Falcons Flame . . ."

LOL. That's like the US government leaking information to the NYT through anonymous sources then in a press conference saying the NYT "broke" the story so it must be true.
