Vladimir Putin vowed to hunt down the leaders of an armed mutiny which threatened to topple his regime as the Russian dictator broke cover for the first time since the chaos engulfing his country.

In a short pre-recorded TV address to the nation, the warmonger denounced the Yevgeny Prigozhin's attempted Wagner mutineers as 'criminals' and warned he would bring them to 'justice'.

Putin made no mention of Prigozhin, who is believed to have fled to Belarus after agreeing to stand down his march on Moscow after negotiating a deal with Moscow brokered by Belarusian strongman Alexander Lukashenko.

You’ve got to say it in the form of a question!

WHAT IS, “Is that it”?

Do you think these are nice suits like President Trump wears, or just typical socialist thin scratchy suits?

It makes no different who report the news. If someone disagrees with it, they call it untrustworthy

I’m starting to wonder if the rumors are true that Wagner captured Gerasimov in Rostov and are still holding him as a bargaining chip.

Prigozhin was spotted at the Green City Hotel in Minsk.

From https://t.me/svobodnieslova/2297:

In Belarus, they began to build camps to accommodate the fighters of the Wagner PMC. “Layout” confirmed the construction of a camp in Osipovichi, Mogilev region for 8,000 fighters, 200 km from the border with Ukraine. There will be several camps.

In the Mogilev region of Belarus, the construction of a military camp for mercenaries of the Wagner PMC is already in full swing, the forestry of the region told Layout. According to the interlocutor, there will be several camps, one of them will be located near the town of Osipovichi.

“ We are working, we are already working today. Tomorrow, before lunch, the task is to [build] ,” said the interlocutor of Nestka. He added that the area of ​​the camp will be 24 thousand square meters, it will be designed for eight thousand beds.

A source of Nestka, close to the leadership of the Mogilev region, confirmed that the authorities were instructed to build a camp for PMCs in the region.

The information that the mercenaries will be sent to Belarus is also confirmed by the relatives of the members of the Wagner group.

One of the relatives, referring to her friend, said that the Wagner PMC units remaining in Rostov-on-Don would be sent to Belarus. Another interlocutor of the publication told Layout that her husband, who was in Rostov on Saturday, informed her about being sent to Belarus “most likely”, but did not get in touch again.

Also, three participants in chats with relatives said that they received similar messages from relatives, but in a conversation with a Nestka correspondent, they mentioned that they did not know for sure whether the units were heading towards Belarus. One of the interlocutors said that his relative was “near Rostov” by this hour.

I don't think Putin cares about Gerasimov. If Yevgeny Prigozhin shoots Gerasimov, it's just collateral damage to Putin.

Wagner's new location near Osipovichi in Belarus 200 km north of Ukraine, but more importantly close to Minsk where Wagner can be used against any uprising by the Belarusian people.

It’s humiliating for Putin if Wagner captured his top general in Rostov. The rumor was that Gerasimov fled the Southern Military District HQ before Wagner arrived and was hiding at a friend’s apartment in the city. Not a good look if true.

I thought this nut show ended when Prigo retreated yesterday but now it looks like this might only be the first act.

Does Putin put these pics out there because he think it makes him look powerful? He looks like a paranoid, hypochondriac loon.
