YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Russian President Vladimir Putin put one of the former top commanders of the Wagner mercenary group, whose chief died in a plane crash after leading an aborted mutiny against Moscow’s military leadership, in charge of volunteer combat units in Ukraine.

Putin met with Andrei Troshev and Deputy Defense Minister Yunus-Bek Yevkurov to discuss the units and social support for fighters, according to a transcript posted on the Kremlin’s website Friday. The volunteer groups will carry out “various combat tasks, first of all, of course, in the special military operation zone,” Putin said.
