A man who took part in Donbas hostilities under the leadership of the so-called commander of the "Somali" battalion of the "DPR" Mikhail Tolstykh, nom-de-guerre Givi, earlier killed in an elevator blast in the occupied Donetsk, was detained on the de-facto border with occupied Crimea on April 13. Speaker for the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine Oleh Slobodyan says the detainee worked as a driver of one of the "commandants" in Luhansk region for two months in 2014. He quit due to wage arrears and later found a job at a local commissariat. At a friend's offer, he joined the "Somali" assault battalion under the leadership of "Givi", who directly instructed the new arrivals.
Having received a nom-de-guerre Chingiz, with the relevant experience at hand, he was assigned to train personnel for serving at checkpoints set up at the so-called "republics." After some time, he quit service and started working as a security guard in the town of Alchevsk. "Amid low salaries, he set off to Moscow looking for a better life. But the working conditions did not satisfy him, so he tried to get to Kyiv seeking a job, first crossing the Kerch Bridge, and then through the administrative border," Slobodyan said. The detainee was served with charge papers under Article 258-3 (creation of a terrorist group or terrorist organization) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. Investigation is under way.

The culture of 'Muscovite Rus' came to form from two heterogeneous sources. The seed of the religious and artistic culture reached Muscovy from southeastern Europe (Byzantium, the Balkans) through Kyiv. On the other hand, the foundation of the political and legal culture came to Muscovy from 'Ulus Jöchi', better known as the Golden Horde. As a result, the Russian "spiritual culture" took the shape of a familiar European facade, behind which a non-European state infrastructure hid.
