All messages and video footage distributed on social networks on behalf of E. Prigozhin about the alleged “strike by the RF Ministry of Defence on the rear camps of PMC Wagner” do not correspond to reality and are an informational provocation.

▫️ The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue to carry out combat missions on the line of contact with the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the special military operation.

A rather important fact slipped through today's report of the Russian Ministry of Defence: four 9M79M missiles of the Tochka-U complex were shot down at once. And this means that the allies of Ukraine apparently were able to find their new stock somewhere. Most likely from Bulgaria.

Can that explain something? Unexpected Ukrainian strike on Wagner's rear camp?

The public conflict between the head of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin and Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu, apparently, is nearing its end

Today, Prigozhin published a frank interview in which he voiced many things that are not customary to talk about in a public environment: about the reasons for the special operation, the troubled affairs of officials, indulging the needs of the oligarchy, profiting from the troubles of Donbass and the collapse of the Russian army.

In this entire interview, specific culprits appear — Shoigu and Gerasimov, whom Prigozhin has been openly blaming for all the problems for the past two months, and Medvedchuk, who has been written off.

An hour ago, Prigozhin announced a strike by the Russian Armed Forces on the rear camp of the Wagner PMC (video is on the Web, the cameraman is following the same route, as the military reporter Alexander Simonov). We have questions about the video: despite the preliminary confirmation of the facts of setting tasks for planning a fire attack on the objects of the Wagner PMC, the video itself does not pull on one hundred percent proof and is, with a high degree of probability, staged.

According to Prigozhin, the council of PMC commanders decided to "figure out why chaos is happening in the country." He demanded from law enforcement agencies not to obstruct, because "it's time to end the disgrace." Prigozhin's stated goal is to deal with Shoigu, who, in his words, "fled from Rostov."

According to the head of the PMC, he has 25,000 fighters behind him. He called on all those who are not indifferent to join his fight. After restoring order, Prigozhin promised to return to the front.

Let's digress a bit. Here RIA Novosti showed such an epic. A French 155-mm Caesar wheeled self-propelled gun moving at high speed dodges the Lancet, but falls into a ditch. Then there she is finished off by the second "Lancet".

Appeal of the Deputy Commander of the Joint Group of Forces, General of the Army Sergei Surovikin, to the leadership, commanders and fighters of the Wagner PMC:

▫️ “I have just arrived by order of the leadership of the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation from the front line, from the front line, where our troops, our commanders, our soldiers, our fighters, volunteers are performing a task, fighting the enemy to the death, with superior enemy forces, suffering losses, but they stand their ground.

▫️ I appeal to the leadership, to the commanders and fighters of the Wagner PMC. Together with you, we have passed a difficult difficult path, we fought together with you, took risks, suffered losses, we won together. We are of the same blood, we are warriors.

▫️ I urge you to stop. The enemy is just waiting for the internal political situation to worsen in our country. It is impossible to play into the hands of the enemy in this difficult time for the country.

▫️ Before it’s too late, and what needs to be done is to obey the will and order of the popularly elected President of the Russian Federation, stop the columns, return them to their permanent deployment points and areas of concentration, solve all problems only peacefully under the leadership of the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation".

March of Justice by Prigozhin: what is known by 09.30

Detachments of PMC "Wagner" during the night entered the Rostov region, blockaded Rostov-on-Don, cordoned off the building of the headquarters of the Southern Military District, where the headquarters of the United Group of Forces is located.

Shoigu and Gerasimov, who, according to Prigozhin, are followed by Wagner PMC, are not in Rostov. Columns of PMCs continue to move towards Moscow. But Prigogine said that his forces would remain in Rostov until the Chief of the General Staff and the Minister of Defence arrived for the talks. In the frame, he is talking to Shoigu's deputy Yunus-Bek Yevkurov and the first deputy head of the Main Directorate of the General Staff, Lieutenant General Vladimir Alekseev.

In the meantime, a counter-terrorist operation regime was officially introduced in the capital and the Moscow region (which formally began two days ago in connection with the opening of the underground network of the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine).

In the Voronezh region, a helicopter was shot down, which, according to Prigozhin, attacked PMCs and buses with personnel.

Vladimir Putin's appeal is expected.

Update:
Despite the blockade of the headquarters of the Southern Military District and the M4 highway, where checkpoints are now set up, as well as the occupation of the airfield in the Rostov region, the work of the military command and control agencies and troops has not been paralyzed.
Soldiers and officers from the field report that the situation is calm, everyone at the headquarters is working as usual.

Vladimir Putin's address: main points

▪️ Putin spoke with the commanders of all directions at night.

▪️ Putin called Prigozhin’s actions a “criminal adventure” and a “military rebellion”, as well as a “stab in the back to our country and our people.” He drew a parallel with the times of the First World War — then this led to the loss of vast territories and the tragedy of the civil war.

▪️ Today, the unity of all forces and consolidation is required, all strife that the enemy can take advantage of must be thrown aside.

▪️“What we are facing is personal betrayal and treason”.

▪️Putin called the fighters of PMC "Wagner" heroes, but at the same time he said that they were being pushed to treason, betrayal and rebellion.

▪️What is happening is a blow to Russia and the Russian people.

▪️Everyone who deliberately embarked on the path of betrayal will suffer inevitable punishment to the fullest extent of the law.

▪️All law enforcement agencies received appropriate instructions.

▪️"As President of Russia and Supreme Commander-in-Chief, as a citizen of Russia, I will do everything to stop the rebellion."

▪️Putin never mentioned the names of Prigozhin or Shoigu. Speaks streamlined about those who "organized" everything that happens.

The appeal of the Supreme Commander came out both harsh and strange. Despite the clearly drawn parallels with the First World War and the harshness — nevertheless, Putin declared the need to ensure the integrity of the country and neutralize those who organized the rebellion — there are a lot of subtle points in the message.

For example, PMCs are recognized as heroes and patriots of the country, who were tricked into rebellion. For some unknown reason, Prigozhin's name is not mentioned. Putin emphasizes that he spoke with the commanders of the directions, and not with the Minister of Defence and the Chief of the General Staff.

It seems that at the moment there is a deliberate emphasis on the fact that the Supreme Commander-in-Chief has a dialogue with commanders on the ground, he appreciates the feat of PMCs, but at the same time defiantly ignores the participants in the conflict — Prigozhin and Shoigu.

Where this will lead in the future, time will tell.

Planned combat work continues at the headquarters of the group of troops in Rostov-on-Don: the blocking of the headquarters building by PMCs did not affect the course of the special military operation.

There are no Wagner representatives in the combat command and control group, command and control of troops in the NVO zone is under the control of the RF Armed Forces.

Army General Sergei Surovikin and Colonel General Alexei Kim are at their workplace, and Lieutenant General Vladimir Alekseev, First Deputy Head of the Main Directorate of the General Staff, is also at work.

The only thing is that Shoigu and Gerasimov are not at the headquarters of the Southern Military District — yes. But this is well known.

"March of justice" PMC "Wagner" to Moscow
what is known as of 15.00

Columns of PMC "Wagner" passed the village of Yelets in the Lipetsk region. Information about the total number of vehicles and personnel in the columns varies — someone talks about 150 pieces of equipment, someone — about 400 units in four separate columns.

▪️From Yelets to Moscow, 340 kilometres in a straight line, without taking into account the terrain and roadblocks. The main checkpoints and positions of law enforcement agencies are located near the bridge across the Oka at the entrances to Moscow and on the M4 highway.

▪️Individual speakers and individuals either declare in the media about the need to introduce martial law, or they refute themselves. Roskomnadzor’s statements do not add clarity: despite interruptions in the work of Telegram, the RKN (RosKomNadzor — Russian Controlling and Regulating organisation) declares that there are no blockings. But at the same time, they make clarifications that this is possible in the areas of the CTO (Counter Terrorism Operation), which now includes Moscow.

▪️ PMC detachments did not enter Voronezh itself — some moved to a detour through the east of the region, and some along the bypass road. Footage of the Ka-52 operating with the "Vikhr" complexes using the PMC technique appeared on the Web, but it is not known exactly when the incident occurred.

▪️At the entrance to Rostov-on-Don, Chechen detachments "Akhmat" were seen, which were sent to disperse the rebels. The work of the headquarters of the Southern Military District continues as usual: PMC detachments blocked only the approaches to it and demanded that local residents not come closer than 2 km to the building. An explosive package was used to disperse the crowds, several warning shots were fired into the air.

▪️PMC detachments blocked the entrance to the city from Taganrog.

▪️There were no more new statements from the Kremlin or the Russian Ministry of Defence on the current situation.

The population of Rostov continues to conflict because of PMC "Wagner"

Supporters and opponents of PMCs arrange verbal skirmishes and the fighters take away the dissatisfied.

A checkpoint broken through by a PMC column on the M4 highway near the Ikorets River south of Voronezh.

Similar checkpoints are now being built on the border of the Tula and Moscow regions. There is also the line where the rebellious columns of PMCs must be stopped at all costs.

In addition to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the troops of the Russian Guard and units of conscripts, additional units of the Russian Defence Ministry with equipment from the regions have been deployed to Moscow from the regions by military transport aircraft.

Counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine: Orekhovsky sector
situation as of 17.00 June 24, 2023

While the whole world is watching the rebellion of the head of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin and the "march of justice" to Moscow, active hostilities continue at the front. And the most intense pressure falls on the Orekhovsky area.

▪️Ukrainian formations advanced 1.5 km north of Rabotino, taking footholds. Reinforcements of special forces from among the 22nd detachment of the Special Forces and the 45th detachment of the Special Forces of the Airborne Forces were transferred to the site to help the infantry units, which, under pressure from the enemy, were forced to retreat.

In the event that the Russian troops succeed in regrouping and seizing the initiative, it is possible to close the advancing enemy groups into a "cauldron" north of Rabotino — at least the RF Armed Forces have enough forces and means in the area.

▪️According to the Archangel of the Spetsnaz, an accumulation of enemy infantry was detected near Nesteryanka: after a successful fire defeat, the Ukrainian formations were dispersed.

▪️Five Hats are still partly in the grey zone, partly under the control of the enemy. There is no confident control of the RF Armed Forces over the settlement, the Russian infantry is working on enemy reinforcements trying to move forward.

🔻In general, there are too many problems in the Zaporozhye direction, so the fighters, to put it mildly, do not pay much attention to the rebellious marches in the rear.

⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️ Message from the press service of the President of the Republic of Belarus.

This morning, Russian President Vladimir Putin briefed his Belarusian counterpart on the situation in southern Russia with the private military company Wagner. The heads of state agreed on joint actions.
As a follow-up to the agreements, the President of Belarus, having additionally specified the situation through his own channels, and in agreement with the President of Russia, held talks with the head of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin.

Negotiations continued throughout the day. As a result, they came to agreements on the inadmissibility of unleashing a bloody massacre on the territory of Russia. Yevgeny Prigozhin accepted the proposal of the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko to stop the movement of armed persons of the Wagner company on the territory of Russia and take further steps to de-escalate tensions.

At the moment, on the table is an absolutely profitable and acceptable option for solving the situation, with security guarantees for the Wagner PMC fighters.

As previously reported, also during today, the President of Belarus held two meetings with the power bloc of the country on this situation.

They wanted to dissolve PMC "Wagner". On June 23rd we set out on the “March of Justice”. In one day we walked and did not manage 200 km to Moscow.
During this time we have not shed a single drop of the blood of our fighters.

Now is the moment when blood can be shed. Aware of the responsibility of Russian blood being spilled on one side, we turn our columns around and head in the opposite direction to the encampments, according to the plan.

Yevgeny Prigozhin
