Russians are using Moscow priests to recruit children for service in the Russian army, according to the National Resistance Center (NRC). Resistance reports that priests of the Russian church, who are servicemen of the Rosgvardiya, are conducting “military-patriotic” training for children. “They are being taught how to handle weapons, provide first aid, and receive political indoctrination. This indicates the criminal policy of the Russian Federation aimed at militarization and propaganda among the youth,” he said.
