Russian President Putin warned that those on “path of treason” or armed rebellion will be “punished” after the head of the Wagner paramilitary group said his troops had taken control of military facilities in two Russian cities
“It is a stab in the back of our country and our people,” Putin said in an address to the nation, pledging a harsh response and punishment to those who plan “an armed rebellion.” Putin was speaking after militia chief and once close ally Yevgeny Prigozhin dramatically escalated his feud with Moscow’s security establishment over their handling of the invasion of Ukraine – in a stunning series of events that threatens to spiral into a civil war.
The counter-terrorist regime includes but is not limited to document checks, strengthened protection of public order, monitoring telephone conversations and restricting communications, restricting the movement of vehicles and pedestrians on the streets. Prigozhin has asserted that his forces would receive wide backing from Russian soldiers, claiming they were given a hero’s welcome when they entered the Rostov region and that by Saturday morning 60-70 had already joined up with his fighters.
