Russian defence minister shown visiting troops after Wagner mutiny

Russia’s Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu has visited troops involved in the war in Ukraine, in his first public appearance since the Wagner mutiny, according to state TV.

Shoigu has come in for fierce criticism from Wagner leader Yevgeny Prigozhin, who demanded he be removed and accused him of being responsible for problems on the battlefield.

No details have been given as to when or where the visit took place, but it’s the first such reference to him since the mutiny.
