This is the chilling moment when a senior Russian general told Wagner’s mercenaries to obey Putin and return to their bases – while holding his gun tight.
Sergei Surovikin, the most “Wagner-friendly” general, called on the group not to follow Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin’s orders against the president.
In a video posted to Twitter, he said, “The enemy is just waiting for our domestic political situation to become inflamed.
“Don’t play into the enemy’s hands at this difficult time for the country!”
All this time Surovikin sat and grabbed his pistol, which he held tightly with his right hand.
It comes as Prigozhin stated on Friday that his 25,000-strong force is marching into Rostov-on-Don and has “no opposition.”

Wagner leader Yevgeny Prigozhin said in a video released in the early hours of Saturday that his forces have reached the strategically important city of Rostov-on-Don.
He made the move out of anger at what he said was Moscow’s attack on his men, adding that he intends to march on Moscow to face defense chiefs.
Russian President Vladimir Putin today branded Prigozhin’s military coup as “treason” when he addressed the Russian people and said the military leader “stabbed him in the back.”
Prigozhin and his feared 25,000-strong Wagner militia are reportedly in control of the southern Russian city of Rostov-on-Don. of his men.
All public events in the Russian capital have been canceled as Vladimir Putin said on TV that some Russians have been “lured into a criminal adventure” in an attempt to reassert his shaky grip on power.
Putin described the group’s actions as a “criminal adventurous campaign” that is “equivalent to armed mutiny,” and urged those involved to cease any armed action as the unit’s headquarters in St. has been raided.
