Quote: “The enemy is currently conducting a recruiting campaign in the Kursk region, where it expects to recruit 50 to 100 soldiers and officers to fill the so-called “African Corps”.
It is created as a replacement for the mercenaries of the “Wagner” PMC, who operated in Africa, but were sent to Ukraine.”
Details: The expansion of this contingent is reportedly planned for Burkina Faso, and the mercenaries’ main activity will involve training and retraining new waves of local mercenaries to be sent to war against Ukraine.
Background:
