The Sudanese Gambit: Is Wagner Bankrolling War from Africa’s Gold?
The scorched earth of Sudan isn’t just a battleground for local power; it’s a potential financial pipeline fueling Russia’s war machine in Ukraine. These videos offer a chilling glimpse into the alleged nexus between the Wagner Group, Sudanese gold mines, and the Kremlin’s war chest. From Ukrainian special forces engaging Wagner mercenaries in the Sudanese desert to whispers of Russia desperately seeking arms from its African "ally," the implications are far-reaching and demand closer examination. Is this the new face of conflict โ a shadowy proxy war fought with gold and fueled by desperation?
Whispers from the Frontlines: Key Insights
Wagner’s Golden Hand: Multiple reports allege Wagner’s involvement in Sudanese gold mining, potentially funneling profits back to Russia to finance the war in Ukraine. This raises critical questions about the economic underpinnings of the conflict and the extent of Wagner’s reach.
Ukraine’s African Front: Videos document Ukrainian special forces operating in Sudan, reportedly targeting Wagner mercenaries. This unexpected theater of war suggests a widening conflict, blurring geographical boundaries and raising the stakes for all involved.
Arms Deals in the Desert: Reports indicate Russia might be seeking weapons from Sudan, flipping the script on the traditional supplier-recipient dynamic. This possible development underscores potential vulnerabilities in Russia’s military supply chain and its growing reliance on less stable partners.

The Shifting Sands of Power: Emerging Trends
Analysis of these videos, coupled with reports from reputable news agencies like the Associated Press and Reuters, points to a troubling trend: the increasing privatization of war. Wagner’s operations in Sudan exemplify this, showcasing how private military companies can become key players in geopolitical conflicts, operating with less oversight and potentially exacerbating existing instability. The implications for international law and the future of warfare are profound. Furthermore, the potential for resource-driven conflicts, like the alleged link between Sudanese gold and the Ukraine war, demands increased scrutiny.
A Deeper Dive into the Heart of Darkness
The fight for Sudan is more than just a regional conflict; it’s a microcosm of the changing global power dynamics and the evolving nature of warfare. Scroll down to watch the highlighted video segments and delve deeper into this intricate web of alliances, resources, and proxy battles.

Why Ukraine Is Deploying Special Forces to Africa | WSJ NewsWSJ News353,231 views | 7,445 | March 6 2024 13:57:43 (1,013 comments)[ Read more … ]Ukrainian special forces are using drones and night-vision technology to fight a Sudanese rebel group called the Rapid Support Forces, who are backed by Russiaโs Wagner mercenary group.

WSJโs Ian Lovett explains how the frontline in the war between Kyiv and Moscow expanded into Africa and the tactics that Kyiv is using to fight in Sudan.

Russia asks for weapons from Sudan, Russians are not ready for war for several yearsKanal1355,337 views | 386 | September 18 2024 21:30:21 (76 comments)[ Read more … ]

The problems with the Russian Federation’s arms shortage, which the head of Ukrainian intelligence Kirill Budanov recently mentioned, really exist, and Ukraine is not passing off wishful thinking as reality. This was stated by the military-political observer of the Information Resistance group, Alexander Kovalenko, on air at Kiev24.
“It is enough to open Google Maps, look at the situation in Russia with warehouses, storage arsenals and storage centers across the territory – and everything falls into place. There is no need to even give in to doubts. In addition, if everything was fine with the Russian Federation with the mechanized component – equipment, first of all, then why would it be turning to the whole world, to African countries, for example, the same Sudan with an offer to buy out Soviet equipment, tanks that were transferred to these countries. They are also constantly looking for equipment in Central Asia that they can buy out from those countries that can sell it. And they even turned to Latin American countries, Nicaragua, for example, Venezuela with offers to buy out something. That is, the problem is obvious. And it will be more and more in Russia every day,” Kovalenko noted.
He stressed that the Russians were preparing for a war for “several weeks”, but got a war for several years and were not ready for this. The potential they had as of 2022 is now effectively leveled.
Kovalenko noted that we are now emotionally talking about the advance in Donbass – in the Pokrovsk direction, near Ugledar. But we must react not with emotions, but from an analytical point of view.
“In 2022, the Russians had rates of advance and capture of hundreds, and sometimes thousands of square kilometers per day! And now we are talking about their offensive capabilities, which do not consist of several directions, that is, from the north, from the east, from the south at the same time with thousands of kilometers, but we are talking about a section of the front – Pokrovskoe direction, Kurakhovskoye, the Ugledar area. And there the advance of Russian occupiers is either hundreds of meters per day, or even less,” Kovalenko emphasized.
He recalled that in three months of summer in the Pokrovsky direction, where the occupiers are conducting the most active military operations, the enemy troops advanced 21 km, while they lost more than 100 thousand personnel, not to mention a large amount of equipment.
“Here is a comparison. Yes, of course, the Russians will be able to advance in 2025. But at what pace, what areas will they be able to capture? And all this will concern both their offensive potential and, in the long term, defensive potential. That is, this is what Mr. Budanov is talking about, because he does not speak with emotions, but purely analytically, with conclusions that he receives from the state of the Russian military-industrial complex, as well as the ability of the Russian army to replenish its resources for the further implementation of plans. And their plans are to capture the entire territory of Ukraine. Will they be able to do this? No, if even now they have difficulty advancing through rural areas and capturing villages non-stop,” Kovalenko said.
