Russian Wagner Mercenaries In Libya Highlight Reel
Published 3 years ago
A commemorative deployment style video was presented on the Russian mercenary-themed social media channel "Reverse Side Of The Medal" and the content depicts Russian paramilitary involvement in Libya.
The video consists of combat footage and interactions of the Wagner private military company operatives with the locals. The Wagner group mercenaries deployed to Libya in 2019 to support rogue Libyan General Khalifa Heftar's LNA against the internationally recognized Government of National Accord (GNA). They brought with them advanced Russian weaponry and war fighting know-how.
The Wagner group allows the Russian government to flex military power internationally, while maintaining plausible deniability of their actions. The Wagner group has an ever expanding catalog of operations in foreign nations including Ukraine, Syria, Mozambique, Sudan, Libya, and the Central African Republic.
More recently, the government of Mali has called for the expulsion of French troops and has now anointed the Russian mercenary company to bring results in the ongoing battle against jihadist groups like al Qaeda and the Islamic State.
