The British Ministry of Defense reminded that in October 2023, units of the private military company Wagner joined the Russian Guard. Subsequently, on January 3, 2024, the Vostok battalion of the so-called Donetsk People's Republic joined the force.
In addition, Moscow is actively trying to disband and involve the DPR's Cascade group, which specialized in drone operations, in the Russian Guard.
It is also reported that in July 2023, the Russian State Duma authorized the Rosgvardia to use heavier weapons.
The new capabilities, as well as their reinforcement by experienced veterans from other groups, are likely to mean a significant increase in combat effectiveness.
