Wagner mercenaries 'look to refocus on Africa after suffering huge losses in Ukraine and Yevgeny Prigozhin's fall-out with Putin'
Daily Mail ^ | 3/24/2023 | Christian Oliver

Russia's Wagner group is reportedly now turning its focus to Africa after suffering heavy losses in Ukraine amid the mercenary group boss' fall-out with Vladimir Putin.

Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the group, has been in a long-running dispute with the Kremlin, particularly with defence minister Sergei Shoigu. He has accused Shoigu of blocking the supply of ammunition and personnel to his private military group.

Prigozhin and his mercenary group are currently battling in Bakhmut in Ukraine's Donetsk region. Fighting in the area has raged for eight months, producing some of the bloodiest and longest battles of the war.

The brutal conflict has seen Prigozhin lose thousands of men from the frontline, either killed or wounded. Many of the convicts who signed up to join the ranks of the Wagner group have also been pardoned after serving six months in the military. Prigozhin has reportedly been banned by the Kremlin from refreshing troops with more prisoner recruits.

The change of tact from Wagner follows reported fears within the Kremlin that Prigozhin could try and unite his mercenaries to turn on Putin and seize power in Russian outskirt regions following the war in Ukraine.

I wonder how much the Daily Mail gets paid to publish their endless pro-Uke propaganda most of which turns out to be bs.

Daily Mail released the letter that stopped President Trump’s indictment this week. They are working with President Trump’s lawyers, Skippy.

Stooge click bait. Hilarious, but BS disinfo. When they leave Ukraine and end up in Africa, you be sure to let us know. I really am impressed by Wagner’s ability to fight of the Ukes with NO AMMO for a month now. Remember those big shovels full being thrown around here by the globalist stooges 30 days ago? Don’t tell me you were hawking that crappola as well.

Is there a corner of the Earth that is NOT being ‘outsourced’ for Brandon’s Proxy War with Russia?

It should've been True-dolt there instead of Putin. In blackface, Justin Castreau would have fit in well! Putin sticks out like a sore thumb.

Daily Mail was first. The other media reported the Daily Mail story about the letter HOURS later, Sparky.

EXCLUSIVE: Is this the smoking gun? Letter from Michael Cohen claiming Donald Trump did NOT reimburse him for hush money paid to Stormy Daniels appears to fly in the face of the star witness’s grand jury testimony

Bombshell document, exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com, could cripple prosecutors’ pursuit of criminal charges against Trump

22 March 2023

Cohen, Trump’s former lawyer, is the star witness in the case over which Trump reportedly faces imminent arrest for campaign finance violations

But in a February 2018 letter Cohen’s attorney wrote that ‘Mr. Cohen used his own personal funds’ and that ‘neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign reimbursed Mr. Cohen’

Slick, I thought this thread was about that stooge click bait, Wagner Africa crappola you posted. I’m not that interested in your peddling of the Daily Mail, although I’m sure DJT is thankful to DM for keeping him out of jail (snicker).
Are the Wagner mercenaries going to attack Mali, South Africa, Uganda, where?

All pro-Putin Russian military bloggers - and Prigozhin himself - are Debbie Downers comparing to you and guys like yourself ;-)

Why are you so enraged MarxistMaxipad? Some countries don’t like the globohomo Forever War and they are looking for alternatives to your hero Biden.
