The reporter took a picture of the British mercenary who was found as part of a group of Ukrainians. According to Mr. Sladkov, the man named Aiden Eslin is also known as CossackGundi.

Mr. Sladkov says Eslin was found and calculated on the night of April 13th, although other marines tried to prevent this. "There were people standing to the right and left of him, who were clearly attracting attention. With toothpicks in his teeth, it looked defiant. Most likely, they distracted everyone from Aiden Eslin," the reporter noted.

Earlier, Russia’s Defence Ministry said that more than a thousand Ukrainian soldiers – all marines – voluntarily surrendered and laid down their arms in Mariupol.
