Russian General Sergei Surovikin has apparently been missing since the Wagner mutiny.
“rumours” that Surovikin had supported the Wagner uprising internally – defying repeated Russian government claims that absolutely no one in Russia sympathized with Prigozhin’s cause – prior to his disappearance. The rumors, fueled by journalists and bloggers on the encrypted communications application Telegram, claim that Surovikin’s family has not heard from him since this weekend and that he is believed to be in Russian government custody.
“We fought together with you, took risks, we won together,” Surovikin reportedly said, referring to Prigozhin, according to atranslation. “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 escalate in our country.
The Kremlin has not clarified where Surovikin is, but insisted on Wednesday that any speculation on his fate is merely “gossip.”
