On October 9, some members of a Mexican drug cartel were revealed to be working as mercenaries in the Ukrainian military. A video showing suspected Ukrainian mercenaries, all heavily armed, shouted slogans used by drug cartels came to light. The report said that these mercenaries smoked and shouted “Glory to Ukraine, long live Mexico, long live Colombia.” Afterwards, the Mexican president said he was investigating the authenticity of the video and whether Mexicans were involved in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Earlier, it was reported that people linked to Mexican drug cartels volunteered to join the Ukrainian army as mercenaries to learn how to operate suicide drones so they can be easily used in battles with the Mexican government.
