⚡️Russian Ministry of Defense: All messages and video footage distributed on social networks on behalf of Y.Prigozhin about the alleged “strike by the RF Ministry of Defense on the rear camps of PMC Wagner” do not correspond to reality and are an informational provocation. The armed forces of the Russian Federation continue to carry out combat missions on the line of contact with the armed forces of Ukraine in the area of ​​the special military operation.
