More mercenaries from Russia’s Wagner military contractor have rolled into Belarus, continuing their relocation to the ex-Soviet nation following last month’s short-lived mutiny, monitors said.

Belaruski Hajun, a Belarusian activist group that monitors troops movements in Belarus, said a convoy of about 20 vehicles carrying Russian flags and Wagner insignia entered the country on Monday, heading towards a field camp that Belarusian authorities have offered to the company.
