Kursk authorities have placed an advertisement for contract service with an image of a Ukrainian soldier holding a child , captioning it "For ours"
This has already been indirectly confirmed by the city mayor Igor Kutsak, who reprimanded the head of the architecture and urban development committee, Dmitry Kazimirik, “in connection with the blatant negligence in the production and placement of the military-patriotic banner.”
Another post with the same claim with original photo in the comms.

The soldier has a blank shoulder patch even in the original photo. Odd.
The railing in the photo has blue and yellow stripes, which is unlikely in Russia, but I don't see anything about the soldier himself that makes him obviously Ukrainian. (Maybe experts can distinguish by camo patterns?) The comments in Russian on that Reddit thread are ridiculing the use of this photo on a Russian poster but provide no further information.
Yep, that's what confuses me too. Seems like I've missed the time when this photo was popular. Can't do a proper reverse search from mobile tho.
As for railings: I have a couple of these combinations around me in Russia because these basic colors are, well, that basic. There were some news about communal service workers repainting park benches and fences into different colors after someone spotted they are blue-yellow. But even Zet-head users found this ridiculous and stupid.
