Foreign Ukrainian Mercenaries from the 23rd Brigade in Zaporozhye Front Assault

Brazilian merc down!

Tobias Junior Silva from Anápolis, Goiás, Brazil

Silva left Brazil for Europe in search of better living conditions with his wife and three children.

However, it looks like things didn't go quite as planned.

Perhaps due to lack of money or due to desire to experience greater excitement or whatever other reason, he thought it was a great idea to abandon his family and set off for Ukraine.

It is difficult to comprehend the motivations of some individuals.

He arrived in Ukraine in January 2025 and was dead by March.

Quick, huh?

There he joined the 23rd Mechanized Brigade and was soon sent to the meat grinder in the Zaporozhye front, where on March 9, 2025 his group tried to invade the trenches of the 37th Separate Guards Motor Rifle Brigade of the 36th Combined Arms Army and half were wiped out.

He was wounded by a VOG and, to avoid suffering, shot himself with his gun.

His Turkish colleague Sedat Kök tried to ask the Russian drone operator for mercy, but it was too late.

He was then finished off like a rat.

The video shows how the battle ended.

That was the end of it.

He didn't think twice about his family and what his death would mean for them.
