Russian occupants are preparing an expedition to Africa to search for and train mercenaries to participate in the war against Ukraine. This was reported by the National Resistance Center.


Reportedly, the Russians are currently conducting a recruitment campaign in the Kursk region, where they expect to recruit 50 to 100 soldiers and officers to fill the so-called "African Corps".


It is being created as a replacement for the mercenaries of the Wagner PMC, who operated in Africa but were sent to the war in Ukraine.


The expansion of this contingent is planned in Burkina Faso, and their main activity will be training and retraining of new waves of local mercenaries to be sent to war against Ukraine.
