Brief description
In 2023, Caucasian Knot, citing a fighter with experience of the Chechen wars by the name of Abu Isa Shishani, reported on the existence of a Special Operation Group (name given in English). The source described it as a secretive Chechen special forces group subordinate to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but noted little was known about its membership or size (Caucasian Knot, 2023).
