What is known about the movement of the PPK “Redan”
The group is made up of anime fans. Young people wear spider t-shirts and the number 4 (a reference to the Hunter x Hunter anime). Representatives of the subculture call themselves informals. They oppose football fans, migrants and people from the Caucasus. However, they say that the name PIK is a joke. Members of the movement do not associate themselves with a private military campaign.

- On February 27, in Ukraine, the youth movement PIK “Redan” began to be massively popularized. More and more videos about the movement are being circulated on social media.
- And groups appear on telegram channels where they discuss the narratives of this subculture, and also encourage teenagers to fight.
- Previously, such skirmishes took place in Poltava, Dnipro and Ivano-Frankivsk.
