British intelligence estimates the number of “African Corps” in small in about 2000 fighters and more than 100 units of basic military equipment, including tanks, rocket launchers and tactical bombers.
The review states that after the attempt to rebellion of the Wagnerians, headed by Eugene Prigoginy, the Russian Ministry of Defense “seeks to centralize the control of the deployment of Russian security forces abroad.”
Therefore, the controlled Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has replaced the Wagner PEC in Syria and Libya, and now in Mali.
“The Wagner group continues to operate independently in the Central African Republic and in Belarus, where about 2000 and 300 Wagner fighters are probably deployed,”-sums up in the review.
Last week, British intelligence noted that the Russian Federation would completely abolish the parade for the Navy Day.
