There had been speculation that Wagner’s march was cancelled in return for the general’s sacking. However, footage aired on Russian TV on Monday shows him issuing orders for Ukrainian missile sites to be attacked.

He is heard discussing recent events, suggesting that the video was filmed after the mutiny.

The video suggests that President Vladimir Putin has kept both Mr Shoigu and Gen Gerasimov in their posts.

You’re right, but even then the article says the video “suggests” they are still in their posts. Fuck, this situation is difficult to follow.
