The picture also supports the suggestion that these are the soldiers who will take part in the fighting. In fact, there is no mobilisation, no soldiers are being recruited to take part in combat action, nor is the story about the actions of the US state. It is about a private company recruiting people with military experience to take part in operations to extract people from Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>A review by Factcheck.bg showed that the primary source of the story were Russian websites, which published it as early as the end of September. The text was first published in Bulgarian at the beginning of October. It has been translated from Russian verbatim and without any subsequent editing. Although it purports to be information, the text is clearly judgmental. It explains what US \u2018mercenaries\u2019 are doing in countries &#8220;where the US has already &#8216;brought democracy'&#8221;, and the extraction operations are depicted as follows:<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8216;Extraction is the standard procedure used by US mercenaries when it is necessary to quickly and quietly \u2018extract\u2019 Washington&#8217;s prot\u00e9g\u00e9s from a small country before being overtaken by the &#8216;people&#8217;s love\u2019 swinging under the windows of the residence before a screaming mob.&#8217;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-19-at-16.34.36.png\" class=\"td-modal-image td-center aligncenter wp-image-10077 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" width=\"712\" height=\"496\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"td-modal-image td-center aligncenter wp-image-10077\" src=\"https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-19-at-16.34.36.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"712\" height=\"496\" srcset=\"https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-19-at-16.34.36.png 1212w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-19-at-16.34.36-300x209.png 300w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-19-at-16.34.36-1024x713.png 1024w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-19-at-16.34.36-768x535.png 768w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-19-at-16.34.36-696x485.png 696w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-19-at-16.34.36-1068x744.png 1068w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 712px) 100vw, 712px\" \/><\/noscript> <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-18-at-17.21.49.png\" class=\"td-modal-image td-center aligncenter wp-image-10079 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" width=\"710\" height=\"804\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"td-modal-image td-center aligncenter wp-image-10079\" src=\"https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-18-at-17.21.49.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"710\" height=\"804\" srcset=\"https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-18-at-17.21.49.png 1116w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-18-at-17.21.49-265x300.png 265w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-18-at-17.21.49-904x1024.png 904w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-18-at-17.21.49-768x870.png 768w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-18-at-17.21.49-696x788.png 696w, https:\/\/factcheck.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Screenshot-2022-10-18-at-17.21.49-1068x1210.png 1068w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><strong>Job advertisement or mobilisation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No such job advertisement exists in Ukraine.
