Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the country must brace itself for more attacks on national infrastructure as winter approaches.
Large elements of the Wagner Group of mercenaries have likely been assimilated into the command structure of Russia's National Guard and resumed active recruitment, the U.K.'s Ministry of Defence said in an intelligence update Sunday. The Wagner Group has been in a state of flux since the death of its leader Yevgeny Prigozhin in a plane crash in August. The incident is under investigation.
Now, the latest iteration of the Wagner Group, under Rosgvardiya's command, is likely being led by Pavel Prigozhin, the son of the late Yevgeny Prigozhin, the U.K. said. 'Other groups of Wagner fighters have highly likely joined another Russian PMC , Redut, which according to a Radio Free Europe investigation now has 7,000 personnel in total,' the U.K. said in an intelligence update on X , formerly known as Twitter.
