"Putin's Motives in Africa Exposed: Prigozhin's Death Reveals Kremlin's Agenda"

Private mercenary groups with ties to Russian security forces are absorbing fighters from Yevgeny Prigozhin's Wagner Group into their own operations following Prigozhin's death. Some fighters are joining Redut, financed by Gennady Timchenko, while others are being recruited by Convoy, which has received funding from Arkady Rotenberg. The Kremlin is also taking control of some Wagner Group units operating in the Middle East and Africa. These developments reflect a broader adjustment in Russia's security architecture as Kremlin-linked groups seek to capitalize on Prigozhin's influence. Changes are also occurring in Belarus, where Wagner fighters are leaving, raising concerns about potential provocations and destabilization efforts. Poland and the US are closely monitoring the situation and sharing intelligence on Wagner Group.
