Description
Following mercenary group Wagner's rebellion against Moscow, a deal was struck seeing them exiled to the Russian-allied country of Belarus. In the town of Asipovichy, in the central Mogilev Region where Minsk could offer a camp to the Wagnerites, residents see no reason "to panic". "I feel pretty calm. I don't feel any panic," says Yelena, who admits "there is some uncertainty" but nothing "out of the ordinary." IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
