Convict soldiers have accused Yevgeny Prigozhin of “walking off” in the middle of an attempted coup after making a deal with Vladimir Putin.
In a video, the Russian military unit called Storm Z said: “Rumours say you walked off, lied to all the lads. The whole of Storm Z was ready to stand behind you, and not only Storm Z, your guys also. But you walked off.”
The soldier added: “When people move, they move together. But it turns out you’re not a man.”
It comes as Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin will be exiled from Russia to Belarus as part of a truce agreed with Vladimir Putin after an explosive armed rebellion raced to Moscow on Saturday.
The mutiny was called off at the 11th hour as Prigozhin said he wanted to “avoid bloodshed”. Wagner’s forces were about four hours away from Moscow when news of the dramatic turnaround came.
His decision to stop Wagner soldiers storming through Moscow saved him and his men from facing criminal charges over the attempted coup, the Kremlin said.
