Probably!

5/5 All traces vanish from Vyaliy666’s Telegram. He’s forced to erase posts exposing #Wagner fighters. On Nov 20, Wagner claims he "admitted" the charges and deleted everything, warning critics of "offline consequences" thanks to access to their data, a classic PMC intimidation.

4/5 Vyaliy666 soon drew his #Wagner colleagues’ wrath and Telegram administrators' attention. On Nov 15 he faced heavy pressure and threats. A coordinated attack then hit channel non-subscribers, hacking phones/Telegram. Some succeeded, stealing chats with fighters.

3/5 Vyaliy666 also exposed another alleged paedophile in #Wagner : Commander Shstrom Yusup Mamatov ("Bagdad"), a Dagestani said to be undercover in Baghdad. This one allegedly claimed that sex with 13–14-year-olds was "not only possible but necessary".

2/5 Lying about his age, he jumps straight to obscenities. Vyaliy666 immediately posts the screenshots on #Telegram, first on their account, then in the channel dedicated to the general registry of paedophiles "Всеобщий реестр педофилов переходник".

4/4 Wagner has operated in #Venezuela since 2019, guarding Maduro, mining, training troops & quelling protests. Now Moscow seeks to secure oil access & expand its reach. Some speculate Wagner could even evacuate Maduro if the U.S. intervenes. #Russia ’s footprint keeps deepening.

3/4 Unclear what else was onboard, but Russian "advisors" may have landed too. MP Alexei Zhuravlyov said #Russia sees "no obstacle" to sending Kalibr missiles or Oreshnik ICBMs to #Venezuela. Moscow’s goal : bolster Caracas militarily & counter perceived U.S. influence.

2/4 The IL-76 (RA-78765) belongs to Aviacon Zitotrans, a firm under U.S. sanctions & linked to #Wagner. Known for hauling arms to Africa/LatAm, it likely delivered Pantsir-S1 or Buk-M2E parts to #Caracas. The Africa detour aimed to dodge Western tracking, typical covert ops tactic.

4/4 #Russia & intermediaries use social media to recruit, manipulate & coerce civilians for the #Ukraine war. The "Russian women trap" is just one face of hybrid warfare, where disinformation, seduction & coercion become coordinated weapons.

3/4 Investigations confirm it :

@dfrlab.bsky.social / Atlantic Council found fake Facebook recruiter profiles.

@kyivindependent.com listed Syrians trained near Aleppo.

@apnews.com & @hromadske.bsky.social exposed fake dating traps.

@middleeasteye-rss.bsky.social (Sep 2025) found a Jordan scheme.

2/4 Since 2022, recruiters have used Facebook, Telegram & WhatsApp to lure Syrians, Iraqis & Africans with job or marriage offers. Once in #Russia, they’re sent to the front in #Ukraine. Poverty, lies & social media make easy prey for hybrid warfare networks.

3/3 #Wagner ’s reach now extends into #Europe. In Feb 2025, Moldova found 85 people tied to the group; Poland jailed two Russians for espionage. UK intel had warned since 2023 that redeployed mercenaries were transiting Europe. The EU must boost intel sharing, sanctions & vigilance.

2/3 Recruited via social media, these Russia-backed agents planned further attacks, including the kidnapping of dissident Evgeny Chichvarkin in London. Beyond targeting Ukraine’s aid, #Wagner pursues plots against #Russia ’s "enemies" in Europe : arson, espionage, abductions, more.

3/3 Local officials are powerless as abuses continue and suffering is hidden. #Birao, a remote NE border town cut off by armed groups and unsafe roads, is under tight info control, a perfect hunting ground for #Wagner mercenaries acting with total impunity.

2/3 The video hides #Wagner’s growing abuses. Before reaching #Birao, mercenaries extort truck tolls. Associations now speak out : villagers killed without reason during looting, women raped, some left pregnant, as assaults and fear spread unchecked.
