These two camps are indeed facing each other on the battlefield. But this happens because there is a background. The history of either the Russian or Ukrainian defenders of Chechnya and the Crimean tartars have their reasons for wanting to join the war.

Chechnya Defender of Ukraine and Defender of Russia

Adam Osmayev, the leader of Chechnya in exile, insisted that he and his troops took part in defending Ukraine and against Russia. Osmayev commanded the Dzhokhar Dudayev Battalion.

In 2013 Osmayev was jailed by the government of Ukraine which at that time was still allied with Russia. He was accused of trying to kill Putin at that time.

The group is one of two groups of Chechen volunteers who are publicly known to have fought against Russian-backed separatists and their troops in Ukraine since 2014. The other is called the Sheikh Mansur Battalion and is led by a commander named Muslim Cheberloevsky.

According to dw.com, the identity and exact number of Chechen volunteers in Ukraine is unknown. But most of them are believed to be people who left Chechnya either after the war there ended in 2003 or who have fled Kadyrov’s despotic rule over the past few years.
