A secret mass burial site for members of Russia’s notorious Wagner Group has been discovered in Siberia.
An estimated 200 graves were discovered at a cemetery in Novosibirsk, according to the news outlet. Memorial wreaths traditionally used by Wagner were placed at most of the graves, and many of the names listed of those buried at the site were never officially confirmed as war fatalities. Some of the dead were former convicts from other regions in Russia, Tayga.info reports, citing court documents.
The discovery appears to add to at least seven other sites used by Wagner to bury its dead fighters. Wagner founderpersonally visited one such site earlier this month in the Krasnodar region, admitting that the number of fatalities was steadily “growing.” Many family members of the dead have complained they were never informed of the burials, and in some cases had no idea their loved ones were even involved in the war.
