The commander of the Bears brigade, Viktor Ermolaev, pseudo-Jedi, confirmed the withdrawal of troops in the publication.
Russian military personnel from the Bears PMC, stationed in the African country of Burkina Faso, will be sent to the Kursk region to stop the offensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Le Monde reported it.
It was noted that the soldiers of a brigade associated with the Russian Ministry of Defense, numbering about one hundred people, who arrived in the country’s capital Ouagadougou in May, provided security for a number of key personnel, including , perhaps, the head of the junta , Captain Ibrahim Traore. Now they are leaving Burkina Faso.
“The official reason for their departure, just three months after their arrival, is participation in Russia’s defense efforts against the offensive of the Ukrainian army launched on August 6 in the Kursk region,” the publication said. .
According to Le Monde, the commander of the Bears brigade, Viktor Ermolaev, using the pseudo-Jedi, confirmed the withdrawal of the troops in the publication.
It was noted that on August 27, a clearer message appeared on the Telegram channel of his unit that “in connection with recent events, the brigade will return to Crimea,” where the PMC is based.
Bears PMC has denied any connection with the Russian Ministry of Defense. However, according to the publication, there is evidence of contacts with some heads of the Russian defense department. In particular, last year, Russian Deputy Defense Minister Yunus-bek Yevkurov, who currently oversees the Kremlin’s entire military presence on the African continent, personally visited the Perevalnoye camp in occupied Crimea to offer his support.
As reported, Ukrainian troops managed to surround Russian units in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation. The eastern border of the pocket, which may have housed around 3,000 Russian soldiers, was completely closed.
