Pavel Prigozhin the son of late Wagner PMC boss, Yevgeny Prigozin, now leads a more brutal, reimagined Wagner PMC. Just two days ago, they captured the Orichov Vasilifka and no one can understand how they moved without being noticed.

So, about 20,000 Wagner volunteers were secretly transferred from Belarus to eastern Ukraine, around Bakhmut, while about 2,000 others were sent to parts of Africa.
In Kiev, Poland and beyond, there was great concern and fear when the Belarusian president invited Wagner fighters to Belarus after the failed mutiny in Russia, especially when they were finally spotted around the border with Poland, causing Poland to send about 1000 soldiers to the border area. And then, the rumor that Wagner was being prepped for the take over of Kyiv and all of Ukraine began swelling out of proportion and I’ve reported on this before.
Now, according to the recent report of the Ukrainian military intelligence service, “for several days now, NATO satellites have not been able to record the movement of Wagner’s staff and heavy military equipment.”
A NATO spokesman in the European Union said “such a large military unit can not secretly be withdrawn and cross state borders (undetected)…”
But the truth is, they were actually transferred. They just weren’t detected by any satellite and this is super strange. It hasn’t quiet happened before and in fact troubles the guys on the Ukrainian-western side.
Already, while those guys are trying to figure how on earth they moved without notice – like ghosts, the Wagner boys have already achieved their first big success north of Bakhmut, and in the company of the 106th Russian Division have captured Orekhovo-Vasilevka (Orihovo Vasilifka), which was a major Ukrainian strategic hub in the area.
The Wagner team was led and is now being led by Pavel Prigozhin, son of the late Wagner PMC boss, Yevgeny Prigozin.
