The Jerusalem Post reported that Russia is using mercenaries from Libya and Syria in its war with Ukraine, which started more than two months ago.
The newspaper added that the Wagner Group operates in the Donbass and has recruited fighters from places such as Syria and Libya.
Russia denies any connection to Wagner, although the group was first active in the war to annex Crimea in 2014 and has been accused constantly of war crimes and human rights violations, in addition to its work in some African countries and Syria.
The newspaper, citing a BBC investigation into the group, notes that Wagner is being financed by the Russian intelligence agency, which according to several identical sources, is linked to multiple massacres of civilians in Mali.
