It has been argued that Russia, which is at war with Ukraine, is even mobilizing old Nazi weapons stored in museums.

Ukraine's reconnaissance unit 'Tur' recently released a photo of a conical device emblazoned with a Nazi eagle sentence and a Hakenkreuz (hook cross, †) pattern on Telegram, claiming to have discovered a 1934 Nazi German explosive detonator in a Russian ammunition depot.

The troops were "Hitler and Stalin's regime disappeared, but Putin's regime took over. Only the names are different, but the essence is the same"Russia calls for anti-fascism, but in reality, it is a fascist country" he strongly criticized.




The discovery was also reminiscent of the cooperative relationship between the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany in the early days of World War II.

The Tour Unit was launched on 17 September 1939 when the Soviet Union invaded Poland, which had already been weakened by the Germans"This is one of the most representative examples of cooperation between the two totalitarian regimes."

Also, in August 1939, the Soviet Union and Germany signed a commercial agreement to exchange munitions, technology, and raw materials, under which the Soviet Union was supplied with artillery detonators emblazoned with Hakenkreuz," he added. The unit estimated that the detonator found this time had been preserved in a Russian ammunition depot at the time.




Colonel Oleg Shriayev of Ukraine's 225th Independent Training Regiment argued that "Russia's use of World War II-era equipment has already been confirmed several times" and that "the war has lasted nearly four years, and Russia's ammunition is running out.'

He said he also witnessed Russian soldiers using a bolt-action rifle developed at the end of the 19th century. He explained "The Mosin Rifles are weapons used in World War I and World War II".
