This video is for awareness and telling us Nepalese not to go to any frontline, especially Russia. Either love it or hate it, Russian mercenary (NOt Army) don’t provide same compensation and facilities like US or British army do. and in other hand, DW is a German channel and is ally to Ukraine. Do you expect any Nepali channel to show any negative coverage over Nepal while showing good things about India? Remember bhai, all news channels are biased.

Nepali men fighting for Russia is not the same as joining the British Army's Gurkha Brigade. Russia will use the men as fodder and exploit Nepali poverty. These men should train and try the Gurkha selection process and not throw their lives away needlessly. If Russia isn't paying it's own troops regularly. As a foreign mercenary they'll likely see no money and have any pay stripped from them on the preface of the equipment and provisions they are given. They won't be registered a Russian soldiers. So if they get caught, they will be looking at the four walls of a Ukrainian cell for life for murder as the Geneva convention will not apply to them.

And Indian army

I saw Zolkin do an interview with 2 captured ones a month or 2 ago. I had no idea the situation was this insane. And I can’t believe they pay to actually go there. From the interview w the 2 captured, one said he was in Russia for university but was going broke and needed money for fathers surgery and the other one, if to beleive him said he came to work in Russia as “security” .. anyway both said they are scared to go back to Russia bc they know they’ll be returned back to the battlefield. Anyway thanks for the report DW, informative and solid as always.

Nepali gorkha world powerfull 🇳🇵💪💪

I feel for the families affected by the war,but sometimes i don't understand human beings, they went on the free will without the consent of the government,even the families didn't stop them and now when in trouble asking the government to do something and complaining is astonishing.

Good for Nepal! Why are so many of you so mad about this? Do any of you cry about the French and American mercenaries getting wiped out in Ukraine? Why should any one else care? They volunteered, right?

well, yes and no ... i guess it's more complicated than that. :( first time i heard the economy/poverty/job market was so bad over there tbh ... it certainly is no noble or virtuous cause to go there and fight for Russia per se, but. it's easy to relate on a human level...

@@HShango absolutely. but seeing the economic situation over there and the relative proximity to Russia ... it makes it (and other nearby countries) prime targets for Russian recruitment efforts. 6000 dollars though to get there through brokers/agencies... wow. you have to be really hopeful/faithful in what you're about to do for it to be worth it. and seeing how Russia just throws things (and people) into meatgrinders all the time so far, especially non-Russian troops i would guess (former inmates? people from the outer regions of the country? non-Russian troops? not sure they're worth much in the Russian Command's view ...) :|. welp, there's not much we can do to reach or convince them/anyone anyway really i suppose. it's just extremely sad. imagine going there hoping to make some money to provide for your family or relatives, and realistically probably not having a very good chance of surviving more than a few months, IF you even get paid..... the whole madness of the situation is like whoa. :\

How about Dutch people on the Frontline fighting in Ukraine against Russia? Make a documentary on that too?

it is really sad for this poor country

É inacreditavel isso.......ir morrer por um pais que eles nem conhecem.....o cara tem de estar nuito desesperado para fazer uma coisa dessas.......

Russia not only recruits men from Nepal, but also recruits from Africa and some of the ex-USSR republics. After a marginal 2 - 3 weeks "training" they will be sent into the first 1, 2 waves of attacks, where 80% are being killed. They are cannon fodder, truly. It is seldom Russia has to really pay the salaries. Nepal protested, they asked their people not to go for this, and also they published the information to not pick up such recruitment on the government websites.

These clowns dont realize they are not recognized as russian soldiers when captured. They are put through the civilian court system, facing 20 yrs to life for weapons violations, murder, attempted murder, among other serious chatges

As a nepali , I feel so helpless to see so many Nepalese leaving their country to return as coffins from middle east n still many lost in wars . Earlier too in front line Britishers used them calling them great gurkha's making Nepalese fight the unjust war which has nothing to do with them . Now is also the same some just joined as army to support family back home . While mega rich ppl , politicians n mediw do not speak about it , I am thankful dw covered this topic .

They will join the PLA too. Brave people.

They are not only fighting for Russia. They also fighting for UK, Singapore, India, Brunei, and last fight for USA in Afghanistan, Iraq. Nobody ask them joint they are joining them self.
