We captured Russian army HQ without a single shot – Wagner Chief

Wagner Chief Yevgeny Prigozhin, leading a mutiny to bring down Moscow’s top brass, said Saturday his fighters captured the army HQ in Russia’s Rostov-on-Don ‘without firing a single shot’ and claimed to have the support of locals.

Prigozhin’s fighters crossed into Russia from occupied Ukraine overnight and took the army HQ in the southern city, which serves as a key operational hub for Moscow’s forces in Ukraine.

‘Why does the country support us? Because we went on a march of justice,’ Prigozhin said in his latest audio message on the Telegram social media platform.

‘We got to Rostov. Without a single shot we captured the building of the (army) HQ,’ he said.
