Russian General Sergei Surovikin Found Safe and Resting, Lawmaker Confirms
TL;DR
Sergei Surovikin, a Russian general and deputy commander of Moscow's military operation in Ukraine, has not been seen in public since the Wagner Group mutiny. A Russian lawmaker stated that Surovikin is currently "resting" and not available. Reports suggest that he had advance knowledge of the mutiny, but there is no official confirmation of his whereabouts or arrest. The Wagner rebellion, led by Yevgeny Prigozhin, posed a significant challenge to President Putin, but a deal brokered by Belarusian President Lukashenko ended the rebellion. An uneasy ceasefire is now being observed between Russia and Wagner.
