**Leaked Memo Claims SAS Veterans Trained Russians for Ukraine War**
​
 A leaked **Five Eyes memo**, cited by _The Telegraph_, claims former **SAS and other Western special-forces personnel** trained Russian citizens at private camps in Bulgaria and Serbia, including after the start of the Ukraine war.
​
 The main facility named is **Alfa-Metal in northern Bulgaria**, which reportedly offered €4,000 courses and had links to a St. Petersburg security firm.
​
Alfa-Metal denies training Russians after 2022 or employing SAS veterans, while senior SAS sources have also rejected the allegations.
