?? Chechnya plans yet-another Defence Ministry regiment ??
Dr Mark Youngman
Investigating Russian actors and networks so that professionals can build the evidence base they need. Specialising in security issues.
Chechen Prime Minister Magomed Daudov has revealed that Chechnya is in the process of forming a new unit within the ministry, and that it will be manned by 2,000 fighters.
In this week's Threat Monitor, I'll put this development in context, outlining the new units that have been created since February 2022 and the latest (inflated) figures claimed by the Chechen authorities about how many people it's sent to fight in Ukraine.
Plus I'll provide the latest updates linked to terrorism & insurgency, PMCs and state-linked security services in Russia. The newsletter will be out tomorrow morning, so if you want it in your inbox, make sure to sign up now!
