"Reuters" reports on barracks in Southern Russia for soldiers sent to Syria

Near Krasnodar, under the guise of a pioneer camp, there is a transit centre for the participants in the Russia's military operations in Syria, an investigation conducted by the "Reuters" asserts.

Relatives of the servicemen, who stopped there, told the news agency that inside the perimeter of the military base located near the Molkino farmstead near Krasnodar, there are barracks for those fighters, who are departing to Syria.

According to documents, the three buildings near Molkino are not barracks, but a pioneer camp; and they have nothing to do with the Russia's Ministry of Defence (MoD). The barracks were built by a company associated with the Russian businessman Evgeny Prigozhin, who had been blacklisted by the USA for his work with the Russian Army.
