Russia’s infamous Wagner Group has abandoned dozens of former Central African Republic (CAR) rebels in Ukraine’s Donbas region after recruiting them to fight Vladimir Putin’s war, two former CAR fighters told The Daily Beast.
The CAR sources, who were recruited by Wagner after quitting the Union for Peace (UPC) rebel group last December, said that many of the 100 or so ex-UPC fighters currently in Ukraine have lost contact with Wagner after the group trained them and flew them to the Donbas region about eight months ago.
“Some of our colleagues have called us [on the phone] to inform us that the Russian soldiers who took them to eastern Ukraine deployed them to a particular town and left them to fight on their own,” Ali, who was not part of the group sent to Ukraine, told The Daily Beast. “As we speak, they haven’t been paid for months and they can’t even feed themselves.” (The Daily Beast has changed the names of its sources to protect them from possible retribution.)
Some ex-UPC recruits, often referred to as “Black Russians” by many in CAR, are now having to “steal from civilians” to be able to survive the hardships in Ukraine, according to Ali.

Very sad ....if True. Again this may all be BS.
Not just sad. It’s disgusting
Who’s going to believe these groups who find nothing wrong about shifting sides in conflicts and can be easily bought and sold.
“Come out to the Ukraine, we’ll get together, have a few laughs...”
“Allegedly” you posted something that wasn’t western goon misinfo. “Allegedly”, of course.
I’m sure this story is totally accurate like everything else we get from the MSM....
Lying SOS....
How sad! Putin needs to fire some more generals as soon as he finishes his cancer treatment. Do it before he runs out of missiles.
💥💥💥Ukrainian journalist Victoria Khamaza reports about 500 wounded in the Artemivsk (Bakhmut) area of the Ukrainian Armed Forces and foreign mercenaries in the past two days, and their flow to hospitals located in the city itself does not stop💥💥💥
Leave it to you to post Biden war prop from The Daily Beast here. It is becoming a big turn off.
Sad? That is the response of a compassionate fool.
There is no sorrow for the deaths of black mercenaries killing Ukranians
The US using Blackwater recruited mercenaries from around the world to fight in Iraq and Afghanistan. Suspect the Wagner group on behalf of Russia is hiring some of the same guys to fight in Ukraine.
I doubt it. Blackwater had standards. Wagner just takes any warm body for fodder.
Right, Comrade Forest?
It is all propaganda and BS
