Russian mercenary group Wagner Announced, Monday the 17th, the closure of its home base at Russia, located in Molkino, in the Krasnodar region, in the south of the country. The information was revealed by a member of the group, in a video posted to Facebook cable. “We are removing the flags of Russia and the private military company Wagner from our base in Molkino. The base no longer exists. Wagner is leaving for other places,” he said. Another member who appeared in the recording said the base would be closed on July 30. On the other hand, the Belarusian Gayun research project responsible for monitoring military activity in Belarus, reported the arrival of an observation column of the group in the country of more than 100 cars, trucks and buses. The group arrived at its new base, located near the town of Osipovichi. It is Wagner’s third column arriving in the country. According to Gayon, “everything indicates that it won’t be the last.” The country had already confirmed last week that some of the group’s coaches were in the country. According to the Ministry of Defense of Belarus, members were going to start training local forces. Last week, Belarus ratified an agreement signed with Russia on the establishment and operation of a joint training center. There is no specific information about Wagner’s future in the country, nor is there an approximate number of members who will work in Belarus.
