Footprint that wagner has in africa. the middle east as well. one of the things that we havent looked at is the media empire also. yevgeny prigozhin is of course one of the people that the u.s. says meddled heavily in the 2016 the presidential election and was indicted for that by the united states. is yevgeny prigozhin going to step back from all of that, from his exile that realistically is belarus, is he going to play some sort of role? whats going to happen to the immediate commanders he as ...

Casualties here, i dont think the facts support that. prigozhin is claiming three other helicopters and a russian transport. we cant find the evidence to support that. it may materialize later. given the internal security problems russia was having, one being a surprise and two not being able to act, this was russia, centralized command and control. we are decentralizing the united states military. we let tactical commanders make decisions based on whats in front of them. russian commands and co...

This nonsense. it impacts them morale, their willingness to fight, their sense that there are in a just cause, which theyre clearly not. all in, all a good couple days for kyiv, jen. >> you have spent, of course, decades commanding about this yourself. how would you take advantage of the last 48 hours if you were ukrainian military later. as you mentioned, its taking a number of the most skilled battles fighters off the battlefield. the law to forgot where to go from here. what do you do if your...

Russias military effort. at the exact right moment for the ukrainians while their staging their counter offensive. so i cant predict what putins strategy on the battlefield is going to be. but i can say what -- with a fair am of confidence that this is good news for ukraine. >> and we have about 60 seconds. what are you hearing from ukraine? have you very good contacts there? what is the mood there and the sense of what is going on there? >> i mean, people were sanguine about this. they kept a l...

>> i would say that the personality doesnt matter as much as what the russians wanted it to do. although, in the case of the most recent phase of the wagner groups history in ukraine, theyre the person, and the fact that he was on the ground with his forces and angrily denouncing the russian military for not spending enough ammunition and then accusing them of attacking the forces. he was standing up in the field with his troops. i, mean that is a rare russian leader. we dont see that on the par...

They get to the battlefield, they are forced to rush into gunfire. and if they try to retreat, they are shocked by the commanders. so a very, very tough, very ruthless organization. now, they have been for months now at odds with the regular army. because they have been showing up the regular army. the regular army, as we have seen over the last year or so in ukraine, have been performing very badly. they were not able to hold parts of the east, they were not able to capture kyiv. so presented i...

The russian defense ministry or the wagner missionary group. that is not normal. they urge people to stay off the streets and stay careful. the mayor of moscow say antiterrorist measures are taken there. we have heard of a case being filed against yevgeny prigozhin accusing him of armed rebellion. we have a senior russian military commanders urging the wagner mercenaries not to do this. listen to the deputy commander of the russian war commander who we believe had close ties with him. listen to ...

A nightclub all night who said finally about time. this could be the beginning of a civil war. while also going on to say that this individual doesnt particularly like prigozhin and considers him a killer , but that is a sentiment we are hearing from some voices in moscow who have been silenced by the draconian measures of the kremlin imposed since it launched its full-scale invasion of ukraine. its not legal to call what is happening in ukraine a war in russia. you have to officially call it a ...

Precision with scott. good luck with that. and this is a fox news alert. >> im ashley meyer, live in new york. just moments ago, russian president vladimir putin spoke to his nation, calling the armed rebellion by countrys private militia group a betrayal. it comes after the wagner group and its leaders reportedly took over the russian city of rostov on don in a series of angry videos. groups leader blamed russias military for tricking russians into war. hes also blaming the military for killing...

Commanders to take action based on whats happening right in front of them. the russian military, unbelievably centralized to a fault. so, that could also explain the lack of response and the other thing is, i mean, neil, the russian military, where is it? its in ukraine. thats where its focus is and this headquarters that hes holding hostage as youre pointing out, is the headquarters responsible for the defeating the ukrainian counteroffensive. so hes on the move north and moscow is horridly try...
