"Some elements" of the Wagner Group are still in Russian-occupied Ukrainian territories, despite their leader's attempted rebellion nearly a week ago, according to the Department of Defense.
"They have been conducting operations in Ukraine for a while now. And so, you know, most recently near Bakhmut, and so elements of those units are still in Ukraine, but I'm not able to provide numbers from the podium here," he added. Russian Gen. Sergei Surovikin, who previously served as Moscow's top commander in Ukraine, reportedly had advanced knowledge of Prigozhin's plan. His whereabouts are also unknown. The Moscow Times reported Surovikin was arrested on Wednesday, and the Kremlin declined to comment on Thursday.
