In the north-west of the Lipetsk region, near the village of Krasnoye, a column of Wagner PMCs was spotted. This is evidenced by a video that appeared in one of the Telegram chats of the city of Yelets, which is located nearby.
It was filmed according to the geolocation carried out by Meduza on a local road near the railway tracks. Also, the publication refers to the report of an eyewitness, who spoke about the equipment in sand camouflage without identification marks in the area. Thus, the "Wagnerites" remained a little more than 400 km from Moscow. The Governor of the Lipetsk region, Igor Artamonov, confirmed the information about the movement of the Wagner PMC column in the region.
The road connecting the villages of the Lipetsk region with the regional center itself has been dug up .
On the evening of June 23, the head of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, announced that his mercenaries were going to remove the military leadership of the Russian Federation. His military formations went to Rostov-on-Don and Voronezh, then to go to Moscow.
