Yevgeniy Prigozhin’s Wagner mercenaries were traveling through the Lipetsk region, roughly 250 miles from the capital, on Saturday. Putin promised harsh consequences for the organizers of Wagner’s operation. Follow along for live updates:
Late Friday, Prigozhin called for Russians to join Wagner’s campaign after claiming that a Wagner camp in Ukraine had been attacked “from the rear” by Russia’s military. He also said he would march on Moscow unless he could confront his enemies in Russia’s Ministry of Defense. The Defense Ministry denied the accusations in a Telegram post and state media suggested video of the strike had been staged.
Putin promised harsh consequences for the organizers of Wagner’s Saturday operation: “Everyone who deliberately embarked on the path of betrayal, who prepared an armed rebellion, chose the path of blackmail and terrorist methods — they will suffer inevitable punishment,” Putin said in a five-minute speech.
Russian forces launched one of their biggest overnight missile barrages in weeks against Ukrainian cities early Saturday morning, firing some 51 cruise missiles and two self-destructing drones, Ukraine’s air force said in a Telegram post.Late Friday, Prigozhin called for Russians to join Wagner’s campaign after claiming that a Wagner camp in Ukraine had been attacked “from the rear” by Russia’s military.
