Russia's operation in Africa is literally named after the Nazi 'Afrika Korps'. https://yalebooks.yale.edu/2023/07/07/the-wagner-group-explained/ https://www.rferl.org/a/russian-neo-nazis-fighting-ukraine/31871760.html https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-fighter-neo-nazi-symbols-medal-kill-ukraine-nationalist-2022-4 https://www.lemonde.fr/en/le-monde-africa/article/2023/12/17/africa-corps-russia-s-sahel-presence-rebranded_6352317_124.html
