Moscow court jails American mercenary for six years

"A Moscow court has handed down a lengthy prison sentence to 72-year-old US citizen Stephen Hubbard, who was found guilty of fighting as a mercenary for Ukraine.

Hubbard had lived in Ukraine since 2014 and signed a contract with a territorial defense unit in the city of Izium in February 2022. According to prosecutors, he was promised a salary of $1,000 per month to fight alongside Ukrainian forces and was provided with training, weapons, and ammunition.
Hubbard was reportedly detained by Russian soldiers on April 2, 2022 during the fighting for the strategic city, less than two weeks after the escalation of the Ukraine conflict." RT
