The Center for National Resistance reported about this.

Currently, Russia is conducting a recruitment campaign in the Kursk region, where it expects to recruit 50 to 100 soldiers and officers to fill the so-called African Corps. The latter is being created as a replacement for the Wagner PMC mercenaries who operated in Africa but were sent to the zone of 'special military operation'.

The expansion of the specified contingent is planned on the territory of Burkina Faso, and the main activity of the mercenaries will be the training and retraining new waves of local mercenaries to be sent to the war against Ukraine.

“Note that there are no easy earnings, and the price for one’s crimes is growing already in Ukraine. More than 350,000 liquidated Nazis of the Russian military prove it, but not personally,” The Center for National Resistance states.
