Russia's Wagner to be declared a terrorist organization by UK

UK’s Home Office has announced that the Wagner mercenary group will be soon declared a terrorist organization. Suella Braverman, the home secretary, said: “Wagner is a violent and destructive organisation which has acted as a military tool of Vladimir Putin’s Russia overseas. They are terrorists, plain and simple – and this proscription order makes that clear in UK law. Under the Terrorism Act, the Home Secretary has the power to ban an organization if they are involved in terrorism. A draft order will be laid in parliament on Wednesday, which will make it illegal to be a member of or support the Russian group in the UK. #Uktobanwagnergroup#Yevgenyprigozhin #Wagnergroup ~PR.153~ED.101~GR.125~HT.96~
