After Prigozhin’s death, ‘dynamic decrease’ of Wagner mercenaries in Belarus – Lithuanian Defense Minister
In the wake of Wagner PMC leader Yevgeny Prigozhin’s death, there has been a “dynamic decrease” in Wagner mercenaries in Belarus, Lithuanian Defense Minister Arvydas Anušauskas told Lithuanian news outlet LRT on Sep. 6.
The situation is completely different from what it was three weeks ago, he added.
“I can only mention from public sources that there is a dynamic decrease [in the number of mercenaries]. They are splitting up, moving to other territories, some are going on ‘holiday’ to Russia, [or] they are being recruited by other military companies”, said Anušauskas.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
