The videos paint a concerning picture of increasing Russian involvement in the Sahel region, leveraging instability to gain a foothold. The alleged redeployment of Wagner forces, now as the "Africa Corps," may signal a more formalized and strategic approach by Russia to establish a lasting presence.

Continental moves: Russia to send Assad mercenaries from Africa? | DW News DW News
84,202 views | 1,195 | December 6 2024 22:08:32 (328 comments)[ Read more … ] As the crises engulfing the world become ever more complicated and interconnected, Ukrainian intelligence officials say they believe Russia is about to send mercenaries from Africa to shore up Syrian government forces. The Ukrainians say the mercenaries will probably come from Russia’s “Africa Corps”, a rebranded version of the state-funded Wagner Group. The Africa Corps has established a foothold across the continent, though exactly where its mercenaries are active — and in what capacity — is hard to ascertain.

What is known is that they’re heavily involved in northern and western Africa. Russian mercenaries are fighting in Libya’s civil war, as well as propping up the anti-western military juntas in Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger. And they’re particulary influential in the Central African Republic, which signed a security pact with Russia in 2018.

Syria War: Can Russia’s Mercenaries Save Assad from Rebels? | Vantage with Palki Sharma Firstpost

As Syrian rebels capture key cities like Aleppo and Hama, Russia is reportedly sending private mercenaries to reinforce Bashar al-Assad’s troops. Ukrainian intelligence claims these fighters, potentially from Russia’s “Africa Corps,” are being deployed to counter the Islamist-led offensive by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS). The rapid rebel advances, including the storming of Hama’s prison and the loss of strategic strongholds, have forced Assad’s forces into retreat. What does this mean for Syria’s ongoing war, and how will Russia’s increased involvement shape the conflict’s future?

Has Russia’s war in Ukraine spread to Africa? | DW News DW News
86,728 views | 916 | August 10 2024 12:15:01 (462 comments)[ Read more … ] Has Russia’s war in Ukraine just spread to Africa? A diplomatic war of words is well underway: Moscow is accusing Kyiv of opening up “a second front” in Mali. This after Bamako broke off diplomatic relations with Ukraine on Sunday. It was in the wake of a rebel attack in the north of the country that left dozens of Malian soldiers and Russian Wagner mercenaries dead. Analysts say the attack is one of the group’s most deadly defeats in Africa. Niger has since followed suit and also capped diplomatic ties with Kyiv. In Moscow, in the shadow of the Kremlin, dozens of Russians came to mourn the fallen Wagner fighters. The group says its mercenaries and Malian soldiers took heavy losses in clashes with Tuaregs and Islamist fighters from an al-Qaeda affiliate. The Tuaregs said they had killed 84 Russian Wagner mercenaries and 47 Malian soldiers during fierce battles in late July. In Nigeria, at least ninety people are behind bars after images emerged of people waving Russian flags at protests against economic hardship in Kano State. Soon after, Russian flags were seen at rallies in the capital Abuja, as DW’s Christine Mhundwa reports from Lagos. Together with Burkina Faso, the military leaders of Niger and Mali, broke away from the regional grouping ECOWAS earlier this year – forming a club of their own which leans towards Moscow: the Alliance of Sahel States. All three countries ditched longstanding western allies after a number of coups: Mali saw two recent military takeovers — in August 2020 and May 2021. Russian influence was evident even before the coups. Burkina Faso suffered two coups in 2022, the first in January and the second in September. Then in July 2023, Niger’s democratically elected president was deposed in a coup and the country also turned to Russia for its security needs.

Russia’s Bases in Syria Critical for Operations in Africa, Here’s Why | Firstpost Africa Firstpost

The fall of Syrian leader Bashar Al-Assad is going to deal a heavy blow to Russian President Vladimir Putin, not just in West Asia but even in Africa. Russia had one airbase and one naval base in Syria and these were used by the Wagner Group, now Africa Corps, to use the Syrian bases to launch operations in Africa. From Syria, the Africa Corps would be deployed to Sudan, Libya, Chad, Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Equatorial Guinea, Sudan, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. However, with Assad now living in Moscow, Putin has to rethink his strategies in Africa with the bases in Syria now completely out of operations.
