A long article by Esha Krishnaswamy about the background and historical circumstances of Tornado battalion whose members have been released from prison by Zelensky. It covers their previous unit's history and the events that lead to their current formation; the abuses of Tornado battalion while occupying the LDPR; and the crimes revealed in the trial of Tornado battalion's members.

It deeply disturbs me that their numbers apparently make a meaningful addition to the military

There's article today how Ukraine since beginning of war lost 50000 armed personnel killed, 150000 wounded and 100000 MIA (presumably most of them desertions) - that's half their overall numbers including paramilitary and armed militias. And it means the rest of them is probably in very sorry shape in terms of morale and reliability. In such conditions even small numbers of fanatic veterans can make some difference... especially that this entire setup just scream "einsatzgruppe".
