From Africa to Eastern Europe, I’ve listened to many people talk about the brutality of Russian fighters who’ve committed human rights abuses in these areas. It doesn’t matter where it happens, the stories are similar. We can’t be quiet. We betray our friends when we stay silent.

Across West Africa, Russian-backed entities are spreading disinformation through media outlets & social platforms, encouraging people to embark on perilous journeys to Europe with false promises of opportunity and prosperity. These campaigns are designed to destabilize.

Russia is engineering a migration crisis for Europe via the West African. Disinfo on local radio &amp; media pushes desperate people north through Niger toward Libya. Wagner trucks move migrants to smugglers; their militias then help load boats across the Mediterranean. Time to act.

Russia is using Africa as a launchpad to create problems for Europe. Its mercenaries extract minerals, fuel instability &amp; push migration northward. The goal is to weaken Europe. Africa pays the price in massacres, rape &amp; plunder. Europe pays later in division and instability

Russian paramilitaries in Africa have massacred civilians to seize gold mines, raped girls at military bases, then forced contraceptives on them to hide the crimes. These are part of a pattern of resource plunder &amp; violence that has gone on for years

Russian paramilitaries slaughtered at least 50 villagers in Koki, CAR, just to seize a gold mine. I interviewed 16 witnesses who all said the same thing: ordinary people were killed for resources. These horrors in Africa fuel instability that reaches Europe. We cannot look away.

Russia is using Africa as a launchpad against Europe. Troll farms in the continent are targeting elections in Europe &amp; creating chaos that drives migration north. African gold helps fund the war machine. Africans pay first in blood. Europe feels the blowback. We must act fast

Russia’s crimes in Africa don’t stay in Africa. Mercenaries massacre villagers, rape women &amp; loot gold to fund the war in Ukraine. The chaos they create drives migration north &amp; gives Moscow a lever against Europe. Africans pay first in blood. Europe pays later in instability.

I came to Amsterdam with a goal: to tell Europe about Russian operations in Africa; how they are aimed at creating a migration crisis in Europe and undermine democracy in the EU. I came to ask for partnership with Africa to combat this. I am here for seriousness not complacency.

Russia is desperate to damage Europe, and I know this because I’ve spent years investigating its plans. Russia's operations in Africa are hybrid warfare aimed at destabilizing Europe: fueling instability, driving migration flows northward, and weakening EU unity. Europe must act

Russian mercenaries have massacred villagers, raped girls &amp; turned farms into torture sites. Telling these stories matters. It exposes the truth, holds killers accountable &amp; stops Africa from becoming a forgotten theater of Russian brutality. Silence enables more atrocities.

Russia is engineering a migration crisis for Europe, spreading disinformation across West Africa to push desperate people toward deadly Mediterranean routes, while private militias control smuggling networks in Libya. The aim is to destabilize &amp; divide the EU. Time to counter it.

What Russia is doing in Africa is awful and disgraceful. They are plundering Africa’s gold and diamond resources and enslaving many people.

Central Africans say that Russian soldiers are raping, murdering, and torturing civilians.

Russian paramilitaries have turned Central African Republic into a hellscape of atrocities since 2018—all to seize gold &amp; diamond mines in order to fund Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Fired up and ready to speak about atrocities committed by Russian paramilitaries in Africa at the Trust Conference in London.

Today, I turn 41. Despite the scars from my arrest &amp; torture by CAR soldiers, ordered by Russian mercenaries, I’m more determined than ever to expose their crimes in Africa. Join me in this fight. Please donate: PayPal: [email protected] GoFundMe:

With sadness, I spoke about massacre, rape and human rights atrocities committed by Russian paramilitaries deployed in West and Central Africa at the Oslo Freedom Forum in Norway. It was shocking to so many.

Dear Europe — Russia is planning a massive, multi-layered crisis designed to shatter your stability, including orchestrated migration surges &amp; coordinated disinformation to fracture NATO &amp; EU unity. Putin is not bluffing. He’s preparing the ground while the West debates. Wake up!

I exposed how Russia helped orchestrate the coup that truncated democracy in Mali. I revealed the Russian-linked reason behind the coup that ended civilian rule in Burkina Faso. I wasn’t wrong then, and I’m not wrong when I say Russia is eyeing more African nations.

Still one of the greatest honors of my life: Czech Republic’s Homo Homini Award for "detailed mapping of more than a hundred cases of gross human rights violations of defenceless citizens by paramilitary units” from Russia.

I know my job as journalist investigating Russian atrocities is risky and my life will always be at risk. But the implication of Russia’s actions in Africa and beyond is so huge that I really feel I have no choice but to do what I do.
