Russia has intensified recruiеting mercenaries in Central Africa, according to Ukraine's Defense Intelligence.
Recruitment was recorded in Rwanda, Burundi, Congo and Uganda.
A specially formed unit of the Russian Ministry of Defense carries out the process.
Fighters are lured to war by a cash payment of $2,000 for signing a contract. Russians promise a monthly pay of $2,200 and medical insurance. They also offer a Russian passport for those who agree and their family members.
The intelligence also recalls how mercenaries from Nepal, recruited by Russia, deserted the army en masse due to numerous losses and treatment.
