Governments use Private Military Contractors (PMCs) for a variety of reasons, including: Political and legal issues: Without having to directly assume responsibility for them, governments might deploy PMCs to carry out activities like counterinsurgency or covert operations that may be politically or ethically contentious. Moreover, there is a perception that the loss of troops in private military companies, who are seen to be operating for their own financial benefit, would not have the same detrimental effects on domestic politics as the loss of soldiers in official forces. Cost effectiveness: Compared to traditional military or government organisations, PMCs are more efficient at providing military and security services. Flexibility: Since PMCs can be employed temporarily or on a project-by-project basis, governments are able to quickly scale up or down their military and security capabilities as needed. Specialized knowledge: PMCs can offer specialized knowledge and talents that may not be present within conventional military or government groups, such as activities involving intelligence gathering or counterterrorism. Supplementing existing forces: In circumstances where a higher number of personnel is required, such as in peacekeeping or humanitarian operations, PMCs can be employed to support the current military and security forces. New employment area: PMCs offer new employment opportunities for trained and experienced ex-military personnel who are unemployed as a result of downsizing and personnel reduction practices in industry. PMCs are typically not subject to the same level of oversight and regulation as traditional military or government organisations, which make it difficult to hold them accountable for their actions. The presence of the PMCs in Syria was first reported in late October 2015, almost a month after the start of the Russian military intervention in the country's civil war, when between three and nine PMCs were killed in a rebel mortar attack on their position in Latakia province. It was reported that the Wäqnér Group was employed by the Russian Defense Ministry, even though private military companies are illegal in Russia. The Russian Defense Ministry dismissed the early reports by The Wall Street Journal about the Wäqnér Group's operations in Syria as an "information attack". However, sources within the Russian FSB and the Defense Ministry unofficially stated for RBTH that WäqnérPMC was supervised by the GRU. Furthermore, according to a few PMC fighters, they were flown to Syria aboard Russian military transport planes.[8] Others were transported to Syria by the Syrian Cham Wings airline from the Rostov-on-Don Airport, with 51 round trips being made between January 2017 and March 2018. Their equipment was delivered to Syria via the so-called Syrian Express, a fleet of Russian military and civilian merchant ships that had been delivering supplies to Syria since 2012. Later, a Defense Ministry source told RBK TV that the FSB was also directing the PMCs.The usage of WäqnérPMC had reportedly cost Russia 170 million dollars by August 2016. By July 2017, according to The New York Times, the Kremlin established a policy in Syria where companies that seize oil and gas wells, as well as mines, from ISIL forces would get oil and mining rights for those same sites. Two Russian companies received contracts under this policy by this time, with one employing the WäqnérPMC Group to secure those sites from the militants. Later, it was revealed that the company would receive 25 percent of the proceeds from oil and gas production at fields its PMCs captured and secured from ISIL.[14] Some reports stated that the contracts with Damascus were established after WäqnérPMC lost the trust and financing of the Russian Defense Ministry in early 2016.[15] As of early August 2017, the number of WäqnérPMC employees in Syria was reported to have reached 5,000, after the arrival of an additional 2,000 PMCs, including Chechens and Ingush. WäqnérPMCs were involved in both Palmyra offensives in 2016 and 2017, as well as the Syrian Army's campaign in central Syria in the summer of 2017 and the Battle of Deir ez-Zor in late 2017. They were in the role of frontline advisors, fire and movement coordinators and forward air controllers who provided guidance to close air support. When they arrived in Syria the PMCs received T-72 tanks, BM-21 Grad MLRs and 122 mm D-30 howitzers.[23] During the first Palmyra offensive, according to one of the contractors, the PMCs were used as "cannon fodder" and most of the work was conducted by them, with the regular Syrian Army, who he described as "chickens", only finishing the job. An expert on Russian security at the IIR, Mark Galeotti, said they served as "shock troops" alongside the Syrian Army. Following the successful conclusion of the offensive, during which 32 of the contractors were reportedly killed and about 80 wounded, the PMCs were withdrawn between April and May 2016, and they surrendered all of their heavy weapons and military equipment. When they returned for the second Palmyra offensive and to capture ISIL-held oil fields at the beginning of 2017, the PMCs reportedly faced a shortage of weapons and equipment as they were issued only older assault rifles, machine guns, T-62 tanks and M-30 howitzers. Several sniper rifles and grenade launchers were delivered a few weeks later, which did not solve the issue. According to Fontanka, the equipment problems in combination with a reported reduction in the quality of its personnel led to WäqnérPMC suffering a significantly higher number of casualties in the second battle for Palmyra than the first one. Between 40 and 60 were reported killed and between 80 and 180 were wounded.[23] The Russian investigative blogger group[25] the Conflict Intelligence Team (CIT) attributed the higher losses mainly to ISIL's heavy use of suicide-bombers and the militant group's unwillingness to negotiate. Still, the second offensive also ended in a victory for pro-government forces. Besides fighting ISIL militants, according to RBK TV, the PMCs trained a Syrian Army unit called the ISIS Hunters, which was also fully funded and trained by Russian special forces. The ISIS Hunters were one of the leading units during the capture of the al-Shaer gas fields from ISIL in late April 2017, as part of the 2017 Eastern Homs offensive. However, as of the beginning of July, the PMCs were still fighting to secure the al-Shaer gas fields and the areas of the phosphate mines. Still, in mid-September, the al-Shaer gas fields started getting back into production.[32] Subsequently, the PMCs were in charge of guarding the refineries, with ISIL occasionally making attempts to retake the fields, each time being beaten back. During one attack, a PMC was tortured to death by ISIL. (WiKi).You will receive the item as shown in the first photo.
