A crack team of SAS veterans is joining Ukraine's bloody fight against the Russian invasion, the Daily Mirror can reveal.

Retired UK special forces soldiers have volunteered for missions deep inside Ukraine to back up the country's defence.

It is believed ex-Paratroopers may at some point join the special forces teams in Ukraine, along with other UK military specialists.

The veterans, aged between 40 and 60, have had meetings to discuss signing up for the dangerous mission, backing up Ukrainians in combat.

Key to their operation is among them there are highly-trained snipers and experts in the use of anti-aircraft and anti-tank missiles.

Snipers will also help in taking out Russian forward air spotters and Moscow's special forces who are guiding in airstrikes on troops and local communities.

It is believed the operation is not being paid for by the British government but will be funded by a country in Europe, still to be named, via a private military company.

The plan is a way of backing Ukraine militarily but without officially sending serving troops into battle against Vladimir Putin's forces.

More than a dozen of the veterans have already arrived in Ukraine and another dozen will travel there this week.

Among them are warrant officers, sergeants and corporals who have fought all over the world but no Army officers have signed up yet.

It follows Ukraine's President Zelensky announcing an international call to arms for people to go to Ukraine and help defend his homeland.

So far, according to official Ukrainian figures, his troops have killed 5,300 Russian troops in ferocious battles for cities throughout the country.

The ex-SAS team have fought all over Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere globally.
