Wagner Is Heading Back to Ukraine - Under Putin Guard's Watch

Samuel Ramani, associate fellow at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that former Kremlin advisor Sergei Markov, who has championed Prigozhin has made similar claims about Wagner's return "and boasts that Ukrainians are in fear." "Its unclear what role they will play as Wagner is focused on offensive tasks—presumably Kupiansk/Lyman," added Ramani, referring to the sector of the front where Ukraine's forces are engaged in a counteroffensive to retake Russian-occupied territory.
