A Russian soldier who previously served in the Wagner Group and crossed the border from Russia illegally was deported from Finland. A man named Yevgen was detained on June 17 while trying to escape from the war, reports Yle citing 'Glavkom'.

An unexpected incident on the Narva River

The Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs recorded an interesting case on the Narva River, which borders Russia. A Russian border patrol boat with the insignia of the private military company 'Wagner' was spotted there.
