A SCOT fighting for Vladimir Putin last night boasted of killing frontline Ukrainian soldiers.
Jay Fraser, 24, who fled Scotland in August to take up arms for the Russian despot, claims he has completed three deadly combat missions unscathed.
We revealed last week how the former apprentice Tennent’s Brewery worker is hailed as a hero by propaganda channels.
And Fraser proudly declared last night: “I’ve served three deployments with confirmed kills in each, and I’ve never been injured.”
He says he has alienated his family and that they have severed all contact with him.
Fraser, who uses the call sign Celt, told The Scottish Sun on Sunday: “I have no intention of returning to the UK, nor any western aligned state.
“My friends understand my beliefs and support my decision.
“My family were never going to be able to do this.”
“I’m not bothering to think about the future. More important things are going on in the moment here.”
Fraser, from Dunblane, Stirlingshire, said he is fighting for Russian separatist force the Donetsk People’s Republic Militia in an unknown location.
In a rambling interview, he appeared to compare the bloody conflict to a holy war.
The baby-faced soldier said: “Live by the sword, die by the sword should be taken as a command, not a warning.
“I fight for the things I believe in with all the weapons at my disposal, and I leave my opponents dead so I don’t get nailed to a cross or any other place.
“I am not moderate, and I shall try not ever to be.
“If I recognise that the sacred flame within me has given way to a timid votive light, the least I could do is die.”
Fraser says he was known to cops here before fleeing.
He claims to have had two “run-ins” with law enforcement, adding: “I was not charged.”
Police Scotland said it was “aware” of Fraser’s participation in the war.
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office has warned UK nationals against all travel to Russia.
A statement published on the UK Government department's website also warned defectors they face prosecution on return.
It said: “If you travel to Russia to join the Russian army, or to help others engaged in the war with Ukraine, you could be breaking UK laws.
“You could be prosecuted when you return to the UK.”
Fraser, who uses the call-sign Celt, is not the only Scot to become a mercenary for Russia.
We also revealed how fellow Scot Ross McElvenny, 25, from Newton Mearns, Glasgow, lost an eye while fighting for Putin.
