TL;DR Summary

Witnesses accuse Russia's Wagner Group of killing nine Chinese miners in an attack on a gold mine in the Central African Republic. The vigilantes who were patrolling the area saw two pickup trucks carrying white soldiers dressed in military regalia, who ordered them to leave the area. Shortly after, they heard a loud explosion and gunshots that lasted for over an hour. The Chinese government dispatched a team to the mine and called for "severe punishment" for those behind the attack. The Russian-allied CAR government blamed the Coalition of Patriots for Change, while the rebels accused the Wagner Group of carrying out the killings.
