Russian advisers will continue working with the forces of the Central African Republic, but the operations of the Russian paramilitary Wagner Group in CAR were Wagner's own, separate business, the Kremlin said on Wednesday.

Hundreds of Russian operatives including many from the Wagner Group have been helping the CAR government fight rebel insurgencies since 2018, but Wagner's fate is uncertain after its abortive mutiny in Russia on Saturday.
