[Regnum] Three thousand employees of the private military company Wagner will join the Akhmat special forces together with a commander with the call sign Ratibor, said the head of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov.

“The Ministry of Defense has already allocated the required number of vacancies within the unit,” he said on the Telegram channel.
us, in the near future all organizational issues will be resolved, and the soldiers will be able to begin performing operational combat missions.

Kadyrov also noted that Ratibor was undergoing treatment due to injuries received during artillery shelling. However, now, together with other fighters, he is ready to return to the zone of a special military operation, now as part of Akhmat. At the same time, the head of Chechnya called the decision to include former PMC fighters in the Akhmat special forces as a strategically important step.

As Regnum reported, in June 2023, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the goals and objectives of the special operation are adjusted in accordance with the current situation, but in general they are fundamental in nature.

In January, the head of state said that the SVO was launched to protect the interests of Russia, there were no other motives. In this regard, Putin recalled that the geopolitical enemy carried out a coup and began to physically exterminate those who were ready to build normal relations with Russia. He also emphasized that everything that is happening in Donbass is genocide.

The special operation of the Russian Armed Forces in Ukraine began on February 24, 2022. The Russian leadership declared the goals of the Northern Military District to be the demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine. On January 26, 2024, Putin expressed confidence in achieving all the goals of the special operation.
