Report for April 2022 : recurrent human rights abuses claims, unusual expansion vectors and economic predation

All Eyes On Wagner is launching this open source and interactive map collating claims of human rights abuses, OSINT research on economic predation and tracking of expansion. The map can be used by policymakers, journalists, and other OSINT researchers to track Wagner mercenaries activities worldwide. It will be updated as the project progresses.

These first findings are consistent with the idea Wagner mercenaries are systematically committing human rights abuses in countries they are established. In addition to mercenary activities Wagner group generate side revenues through looting and natural resources predation. Finally the mercenary activity development uses unconventional means compared to a traditional private military company.
