Wagner soldiers take control of Voronezh – BBC
Yevgeny Prigozhin's militants have taken control of the main facilities of the city of Voronezh in Russia
This was reported by the BBC.
"All key facilities in Voronezh have also been taken over, just like in Rostov," a source close to the FSB's central office confirmed to the radio station.
According to him, the FSB has no specific plan to suppress the Wagner PMC rebellion.
In Voronezh, Russian Ministry of Defence helicopter was seen blowing up a huge oil storage facility with a missile strike. A massive fire broke out.
At the same time, in Rostov-on-Don itself, according to the latest data from the local portal 161.ru, Wagner soldiers control only the city centre. Instead, the Russian Guard forces loyal to Putin are blocking the approaches to the city and are waiting for reinforcements from units not involved in the war against Ukraine. In particular, a convoy of Kadyrov's fighters is already moving there from Chechnya.
As for the movement of the Wagner soldiers towards Moscow, it is clear from photos and videos on social media and messengers that their advanced units are already in the Lipetsk region of the Russian Federation.
Meanwhile, Moscow is intensifying its preparations for the siege.
