"Several reports indicate the concentration of Wagner veterans around Bakhmut: their experience will probably be particularly in demand in this sector," the message said. They noted that most of the fighters were familiar with the front line and Ukrainian tactics of combat, as last year participated in the fighting in this area of the front. In intelligence, they said that in Ukraine began to relocate individual mercenaries and small groups of various Russian units.
In particular, the accurate status of redeployed fighters is unknown, but some of the military have moved to the formations of the Ministry of Defense of Russia and other PECs. It was added that Wagner's mercenaries left the territory of Ukraine in June 2023 before the start of the rebellion and the death of their leader Yevgeny Prigozhin and other PEC leaders on August 23.
We will remind, on September 27 the adviser to the chairman of the Presidential Office of Ukraine Mykhailo Podolyak reported that the mercenaries of PEC "Wagner" were relocated to the east of Ukraine. He stated that this PEC ended its existence with the liquidation of Prigogine and Utkin. On the same day, the Ukrainian soldiers confirmed the presence of militants in the east. In particular, they returned to the front line after changing the commander.
