The Prigozhin conundrum
Was the Kremlin aware of MI6's interference with Wagner?
UK Column News 26th JuneÂ
In my opinion there is a connection between the timing of the Prigozhin drama and what is happening in Syria. The whole "mutiny" kicked off immediately after the Syrian Arab Army (Republican guard divisions) had mobilised to the north of Syria threatening terrorist positions in the north-west (Idlib), north (US and Turkey) and even stretching to the north-east (Kurds and US). Terrorist groups launched drone attacks on northern Hama, Lattakia (even hitting the birthplace of President Assad, killing a young agricultural engineer and injuring his brother in Qardaha).Â
During the Prigozhin distraction, Russian warplanes and Syrian artillery have been hammering terrorist positions, military headquarters, ammunition stores, drone factories in Idlib and the north-west, Lattakia included. In the last ten hours Russia has accused US fighter jets of violating the de-confliction zone over Idlib so the US is very concerned (long may it last).Western media has been silent because "civil war in Russia".

Hi Vanessa, you can add this to your excellent case by the way, I have sensed for some time now from president Lukashenko that Belarus was vulnerable and with the nuclear installation that compounds the situation. The so called punishment of Prigozhin to be banished there, with troops now building camps, is a blessing for Belarus. Dima from Military Summary channel stating Prigozhin would be training Belarusian troop officers. Just my thoughts.
Thanks for continuing to give us real information and perspective!
