Think about it: They'd be shot at by Ukrainians and shelled by the Russians. They have no backup, no possible escape route, they'd be killed easily by defenders who know the city layout. Unlike the deserts of Syria where they might find some friendly enclaves of combatants, they won't find them in Ukraine.
It will be a suicide mission. Maybe they want Putin to send the money to their widows.
ETA: Furthermore, they don't know the language so they won't be able to blend in. And they have to ask themselves "Why does Putin want us to do this? Why doesn't he send in his own troops?" Again, suicide mission.
