In the past three months, #Russia has begun actively transferring military personnel and mercenaries to #Libya, according to Verstka’s findings. These forces are primarily concentrated in eastern Libya, a region under the control of Khalifa Haftar, the commander of the Libyan National Army and a Kremlin ally.
A source within a Libyan security agency reported that at least 1,800 Russian military personnel have arrived in the country in the last two weeks alone
A monument to Prigozhin will be erected in the Krasnodar Territory
A monument to the founder of the Wagner Group will be erected in the city of Goryachiy Klyuch, Krasnodar Territory, according to the Wagner PMC page on VKontakte.
A photo of a monument appeared in the group, which depicts the figures of the founder of the PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, and the group commander, Dmitry Utkin (it was he who bore the call sign “Wagner”). #AureFreePress#News#press#headline#Russia#Wagner#Prigozhin
Moscow "Z-activists" and supporters of Wagner PMC started stealing bouquets left by a spontaneous memorial to Navalny by the Solovetsky stone and bringing them to Prigozhin's memorial.
The Kremlin has neither confirmed nor refuted the version that Wagner Group founder Yevgeny Prigozhin was ordered to be killed by Nikolai Patrushev, the Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, and Vladimir Putin did not object to such a plan.
Nikolai #Patrushev, a top ally of the Russian leader for decades, put in motion the assassination of the mutinous chief of the #Wagner mercenary group.
"Earlier this year, he told Russia’s Izvestia newspaper that the U.S. is plotting to take over Russia because a massive volcanic eruption in Wyoming could soon make it uninhabitable." 😂
Mikhail Pavlov is a Russian convict from Storm-Z who switched to the side of Ukraine and has already shed blood for the country as a fighter in Russian Volunteer Corps fighting in the Ukrainian Defense Forces.
The West has too few weapons to Ukraine, while Russia repeatedly manages to adapt to changing circumstances on the battlefield, Colony #Reisner of the Austrian army warns. It calls for a tough decision on #Europe.
"With the existing armaments production, you won't be able to deliver what you really need. More effort is needed. And I do not want to use the word war economy here, but it takes deeper efforts."
@hanse_mina I think that we should remind the #GOP and #Orban what happened to #Prigozhin - dictators tend not to hold their word :KEKW: And the 'public opinion' in the West should recall how terrific it was to restrict weapons to Bosnia&Croatia during their war.
On the evening of June 23, #Wagner mercenary leader #Prigozhin was preparing to give the order for his men to march to Moscow and demand the removal of Russia’s military leadership after months of rising tensions.
Prigozhin had secretly planned to attend this session to deliver a harsh criticism of #Russia’s military top brass from the floor of the State Duma in a last-ditch attempt to win back #Putin’s approval, but his plans were canceled at the last minute

An offshore firm helped create companies used by members of Vladimir #Putin 's inner circle, including one hiding the late mercenary boss Yevgeny #Prigozhin 's yacht, the BBC can reveal.
'Two assholes in flight'. Putin's suggestion that Prigozhin and Wagner Group's founder died in a drug-fueled accident enrages the mercenary group's allies
#grenade#fragments were found in the passengers of #Prigozhin's plane. This is easy to do without any person on board being involved. It doesn't absolve #Putin.
Moldova’s president has claimed Russia’s Wagner paramilitaries were behind a thwarted coup attempt that aimed to depose her as head of state to destabilise the country.
Maia Sandu said Wagner’s late leader Prigozhin had planned the coup earlier this year and warned that Moscow is using various methods, including cash mules and bank cards issued in Dubai, to smuggle money into Moldova to bribe voters ahead of a string of elections.
Hand grenade fragments were found in the bodies of rogue Wagner boss Yevgeniy #Prigozhin and two top deputies who were killed in a plane crash in August, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday.
“We know about the plane crash,” he said. “The head of the Investigative Committee reported to me just the other day that fragments of hand grenades were found in the bodies of those killed in the plane crash.”
'the very phrase to describe this designation - shutting the barn door after the horse has bolted. it's purely symbolic and in fact, sets an interesting precedent because I think it's the first time a country has recognised a for profit company as a terrorist org. #Wagner isn't an ideological outfit. It's a money making operation'
