The Wagner Group has reportedly registered as an "educational organization" in Belarus.
The embattled organization has been training soldiers in the Belarusian military for several weeks.
Now, the mercenary group is registered as an "educational organization" in Belarus — its new home — as it trains the country's military.
Information published by Belarus' Unified State Register of Legal Entities and Individual Entrepreneurs shows that Wagner registered as a company earlier this month, with the sole purpose of educational activities, according to multiple reports on Wednesday.
Gen. Pat Ryder told reporters at a briefing earlier this month, adding that "when it comes to Wagner Group, I think we all keep a close eye all of the time."
