Prigozhin Vows “Freer Africa, Greater Russia” In 1st Video Post Wagner Mutiny, Is He Putin’s Proxy?

Описание: Russian mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin posted his first video address since leading a short-lived mutiny in late June, appearing in a clip - possibly shot in Africa - on Telegram channels affiliated with the Wagner group on August 21.
Prigozhin is seen standing in a desert area in camouflage and with a rifle in his hands. In the distance, there are more armed men and a pickup truck.
"The temperature is +50 - everything as we like. The Wagner PMC makes Russia even greater on all continents, and Africa - more free. Justice and happiness - for the African people, we're making life a nightmare for ISIS and Al-Qaeda and other bandits," Prigozhin says in a video.
He then says Wagner is recruiting people and the group "will fulfill the tasks that were set." The video is accompanied by a telephone number for those who want to join the group.
