The Washington Post reported that US officials considered killing top officers from the Russian private military company Wagner to curb its growing influence in Africa.
The newspaper claimed that a document trove leaked by a US guardsman contains files that list multiple scenarios for “coordinated US and allied disruption efforts” against Wagner, including “kinetic” options. The document alleges that the US considered providing information to help Ukraine kill commanders with the PMC in Africa.
According to the Post, the files contain little evidence that the CIA, the Pentagon, and other US agencies have caused Wagner any significant setbacks in the past six years. They did mention a single “successful unattributed attack in Libya” that “destroyed a Wagner logistics aircraft,” but the newspaper did not provide any further details.
