Chechen military units have announced their readiness to deploy to Iran to support the Iranian armed forces in the event of a US ground invasion, according to reports.
The forces, loyal to Ramzan Kadyrov, the head of Russia's Chechen Republic, describe the ongoing American-Israeli war against the Islamic Republic of Iran as a religious war.
They describe their possible direct intervention as a jihad - a battle of good versus evil - in defense of the Islamic Republic of Iran against American and allied forces.
