Former Wagner Group member faces trial for resisting arrest after bar brawl in Norway.

Andrey Medvedev, a former commander in Russia's Wagner mercenary group who defected to Norway in January, has pleaded guilty to being involved in a fight outside an Oslo bar and carrying an air gun in public. Medvedev denied assaulting police officers in the Norwegian capital. The Wagner group has been used in many Russian operations in the Ukraine war. Medvedev claims to have witnessed a host of war crimes while fighting in Ukraine's eastern Donbas region and is willing to testify against senior figures in the mercenary group.
