Russian officials often blame Russia's war in Ukraine on America, Nato, the West, Kyiv. Today Wagner’s Yevgeny Prigozhin blamed Russia's defence minister for the war & dismissed some of the Kremlin’s justifications for invading. A few thoughts... bit.ly/3pkvIOc

NEW -- #WagnerGroup leader #Prigozhin just 'declared war on #Russia's Defense Ministry,' claiming it launched a missile strike on a #Wagner base killing "an enormous number of men." "The evil that the military leadership of #Russia bears must be stopped," he has declared.

Prigozhin says Wagner now controls military sites in Rostov. In a video he's sitting between 2 senior Russian commanders at the regional military HQ; he says he's come to "get" the Chief of the General Staff & defence minister & threatens to blockade Rostov & head to Moscow.
