A report says many people help Kenyans join the war in Ukraine. Corrupt officials and groups trick Kenyans. They promise money and jobs in another country.
The report says over 1,000 Kenyans were tricked. They wanted jobs abroad. Some were former soldiers. Others were men aged 25 to 50. Some agencies and government staff helped them leave.
By February, 89 Kenyans were fighting. One Kenyan died. Others came back hurt. They were promised about 350,000 Kenyan Shillings each month. That is about £2,000. They were also promised big bonuses.
Kenya's government asked Russia to stop recruiting Kenyans. This is a serious problem. Kenya wants to help its people.
The Russian embassy in Nairobi says the claims are not true. They say they do not help recruit Kenyans.
Many Africans are fighting for Russia. This report shows how Kenyans are being tricked. It is a serious issue. An investigation will happen.
