Wagner Group

The Wagner Group is a Russian private military company often described as a paramilitary organization. It is known for conducting military operations in conflict zones, including Syria, Ukraine, and several African countries. While it operates like a mercenary force, its ties to the Russian government have led to speculation about its role in advancing Russian interests abroad. Wagner recruits former military personnel and is believed to be involved in both combat and security missions. Its activities have drawn international scrutiny and criticism due to allegations of human rights abuses and lack of accountability.
