The Russian National Guard, Rosgvardia, is incorporating three former Wagner Group assault detachments into its new Volunteer Corps formation, according to a UK defence intelligence update on Thursday.
This indicates that Russia is continuing processes to assimilate the Wagner private military company, a process that was launched following Wagner’s unsuccessful 2023 coup and subsequent assassination of Wagner leader Prigozhin.
The update states that on 25 December 2023, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law authorizing Rosgvardia to establish its own volunteer units.
