Freudian slip? Military service ad with Ukrainian fighter hung in Kursk in russia

Posters have appeared on the streets of Kursk in russia calling on locals to serve under contract in the Russian army, but it turns out that they depict a soldier in a Ukrainian uniform.

The photo was taken by photographer Vadim Girda for the Associated Press during the evacuation from Irpen in early March 2022.

Following the reaction on the Internet, Kursk Mayor Igor Kutsak reported that the acting head of the Committee for Architecture and Urban Development, Dmitry Kazimirik, was reprimanded "in connection with flagrant negligence in the production and placement of a military-patriotic banner."

Or maybe this is not the negligence of a local official at all? Maybe he was just looking at soldiers in the Kursk region and saw the uniforms that they wear?

The Freedom of Russia League would be happy to accept any right-minded russians who are inspired by the advertisement!
