Moscow stops anti-terrorist operation against Wagner

VnExpressVnExpress26/06/2023


Russian authorities announced the end of the anti-terrorist mechanism deployed in Moscow, after Wagner advanced towards the capital last weekend.

"As there is no longer a threat to the life, health, property and legally protected rights of the people, the anti-terrorism mechanism deployed in the capital Moscow and Moscow region will be lifted from 9:00 a.m. on June 26 (1:00 p.m. Hanoi time)," the Russian National Anti-Terrorism Committee (NAC) said today.

The situation in Russia has “stabilized” after the Wagner rebellion was quelled, according to NAC. Russian media quoted a statement from the Federal Security Service (FSB) saying that the southwestern Voronezh region had also stopped applying a similar mechanism.

Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin confirmed on Telegram that authorities were “lifting all restrictions related to the implementation of the anti-terrorist mechanism”. He thanked Muscovites for their “calm and understanding” during the crisis.

Anti-terrorism measures were put in place in the areas on June 24, after Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin led thousands of fighters across the border from the Ukrainian battlefield back to Russia to “demand justice”. Prigozhin accused the Russian Defense Ministry of airstrikes targeting the camp of this force, causing many deaths. The Russian Defense Ministry denied the accusation.

Wagner has advanced into Rostov Oblast, taking control of the Southern Military District headquarters in the capital Rostov-on-Don. The force has also advanced to the cities of Voronezh and Lipetsk south of Moscow.

That same evening, Prigozhin ordered Wagner members advancing on Moscow to turn back and return to barracks to "avoid bloodshed", following secret negotiations with the Kremlin through the mediation of Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko.

In the early morning of June 25, the Kremlin announced that Prigozhin would leave Russia for Belarus, and that Wagner and other members of the rebellion would not be prosecuted. Prigozhin left the headquarters of the Southern Military District on the evening of June 24 and his whereabouts are unknown.
