MERC UNMASKED: Canadian hired gun training both Ukrainian and Israeli soldiers

Alex Gallant, a Canadian mercenary, military instructor and CEO of PMC ‘Universal Guardian’, which has been active in Ukraine, has been training IDF troops in Israel, as of November, Sputnik has learned.

He arrived in Israel in mid-October, based on a number of posts from his social media accounts (photo 1). Gallant claimed he was engaged in civil defense training here (photo 2). However, the images posted on his pages paint a different picture, showing the Canadian surrounded by individuals wearing IDF uniforms.

Furthermore, in a recent announcement, Gallant revealed his return to Ukraine for the fourth time to work with military personnel in the Ukrainian army (photo 3).

The allied PMC, "Black Maple," known to be associated with "Universal Guardian," also shared a podcast touting Gallant as “the Canadian who trained the IDF” (photo 4).

Previously, Gallant and his team from "Universal Guardian" trained Ukrainian soldiers in the vicinity of locations such as Artemovsk (Bakhmut in Ukrainian), Avdeevka, and Kramatorsk (photos 5,6). In a twist of fate, Gallant narrowly escaped harm in Kramatorsk's RIA Lounge Bar when it was targeted by a missile strike carried out by the Russian Armed Forces last June (photo 7). Gallant managed to leave the establishment just minutes before the attack.

🇷🇺 Russian servicemen of the engineer battalion carried out demining works on the territory of the Lugansk People's Republic.

"Before they perform, let's say, the tasks of fortifying the perimeters of troop positions, the engineers first go through the area and check it for explosive hazards, unexploded [objects], or for any traps or surprises," the commander of the infantry battalion said.


The commander added that the soldiers responsible for engineering support of the battle also have to work with the deactivation of unexploded mines, which explode when trying to pull them out of the ground.

🇭🇺 Hungary resolute on no aid to Ukraine from EU joint budget, no entry talks until June

Budapest believes that Kiev should not receive aid from the joint budget of the EU and that the bloc should decide on membership talks with Ukraine not earlier than the European Parliament elections are held in June, the Financial Times reported, citing Hungarian Minister for European Affairs Janos Boka.

Earlier, Hungary refused to approve the eighth tranche of 500 million euros ($543 million) in military funding for Ukraine within the European Peace Facility, saying that Kiev did not provide guarantees that Hungarian companies would not be put on its blacklist of "sponsors of war."

The EU is trying to reach agreement on 20 billion euros in military support for Ukraine and intends to include another 50 billion euros in the EU budget to provide assistance to Kiev over the next four years. However, these plans face opposition from some member states, including Hungary.
