Threats against Moscow are unleashed by Wagner mercenaries through social media, especially Telegram. With their faces covered, the alleged fighters by Wagner they speak of “traitors” in Russia, sending messages of the type “We are starting, wait for us”, and “we are coming”.

Telegram channels linked to mercenaries of the once-powerful Wagner paramilitary group announced the deaths of Yevgeny Prigozhin, Dmitry Utkin and other Wagner officials, with their fighters threatening since Wednesday night with “new june”, that is, with a new advance on the Kremlin.

Wagner’s alleged fighters, weapons in hand, they talk about “traitors” in Russia, sending messages of the type “We are starting, wait for us”, and “we are coming”.

It is noted that in St. Petersburg, the headquarters of Wagner was filled with flowers and wreaths for Prigozhin and the other dead officials, while an illuminated cross was formed on the facade of the headquarters with office lights.

“Worry Hero”

However, the Russian media “glorify” Prigozhin, and categorically reject the scenario that Moscow assassinated the Russian warlord. As a last resort, they talk about “traitors” within the security authorities, however, questioning this possibility as well.

Although the cause of the crash is still unclear, Russian media are talking about a bomb placed in a box of expensive wines that was planted inside Prigozhin’s Embraer jet, refuting the scenario of a Russian missile strike.

Propaganda “Tsargrad” stated that “if we talk about who benefits from this, then it can be beneficial for Prigozhin’s enemies abroad, Wagner’s enemies, who are in Africa, but it may be an accidental death.’

“Yevgeny was a true patriot of Russia. Daring. Terrible to enemies and inconvenient to bureaucrats. (…) On June 24, having raised armed phalanxes against Moscow, he almost unleashed a civil war. But, thank God, it stopped in time.”

“Yevgeni was one of those who care. He could be the most successful restaurateur in the country, but he chose to exchange a good life for the fight against Russia’s enemies. Him too the restless hero he cared for is no more. Rest in peace, restless hero. We will definitely take Kiev! Your work will not be lost.”

“The Romans used to say a simple but clever truth: Cui prodest? “Look who benefits.” Let’s discuss who benefits from Prigozhin’s death right now. If the FSB did
(Federal Security Service) then this is direct and obvious treason to the Motherland. In conditions where the country is at war, and moreover, has intercepted the counter-attack and is itself going on the offensive, the assassination of Prigozhin, no matter how one treats him, is simply an explosion and weakening of our positions. Is it possible that there are traitors in the ranks of the security forces? a business of this size requires a lot of involvement, not one or two people…” he emphasized.

The Russian media recall the statement of the head of the Ukrainian military intelligence service Kirill Budanov, “wait for good news.”
