They still cannot decide the future of Prigozhin's army.
The Kremlin and the military leadership of the Russian Federation still cannot come to an agreement on the future of the Wagner Group after the unsuccessful mutiny by Yevgeny Prigozhin. Some of them will probably return to Africa.
The British Ministry of Defence reported on Twitter.
“The Russian security apparatus entered a period of confusion and negotiations after Wagner Group’s 24 June 2023 mutiny. In recent days, an interim arrangement for the future of the group has started to take shape,” British intelligence says.
British Intelligence says that On 12 July 2023, the Russian MoD announced that Wagner had handed over 2000 pieces of military equipment, including tanks. As of 15 July 2023, at least a small contingent of Wagner fighters have arrived at a camp in Belarus.
Concurrently, some Wagner-associated social media groups have resumed activity, with a focus on highlighting the PMCs activities in Africa.
"Based on recent announcements by Russian officials, the state is likely prepared to accept Wagner’s aspirations to maintain its extensive presence on the continent," the report reads.
