Are there any fighters here who are willing to volunteer?
The Russian militia mercenary group Wagner Group is so desperate to replenish their ranks depleted by months of bloody fighting in Ukraine that they have turned to porn site Pornhub to recruit soldiers.
The private army, founded by Yevgeny Prigozhin, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, has published an extremely daring ad on the popular porn site, urging male surfers to stop pleasuring themselves and instead apply for a job at the Wagner Group.
Their ad shows the lips of a blonde woman with red lipstick twirling an oversized lollipop in her mouth, while a husky, seductive female voice says: "We are the coolest private army in the world. We recruit fighters from all over Russia. Don't worry, come work for the Wagner Group."
A phone number then appears on the screen, said to be associated with militia force recruiters.
"Stop masturbating and come fight!"
The mass media drew attention to the fact that PVK "Вагнер", whose owner is Євген Пригожин, began to advertise on the popular porn site Pornhub (18+).
