“We know about not unique cases of the participation of the citizens of Ukraine in the so-called “Wagner Group” when our former citizens participated in it. Moreover, today we can say that the enrollment in the “Wagner Group” took place in occupied Crimea and the group aimed to Sudan. We have already published some of the surnames, and we will publish the second part of the surnames along with the journalists soon,” Huskov said.

Earlier the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) published a list of 149 mercenaries of Wagner’s group, who participated in the suppression of the democratic protests in Sudan at the beginning of 2019.
