Russian President Vladimir Putin said in an emergency televised address on Saturday that an "armed mutiny" by the Wagner Group mercenary force was treason, and that anyone who had taken up arms against the Russian military would be punished.

Meanwhile, London-based academic Kier Giles said on Saturday that “solidarity” in Putin’s inner circle would be a crucial factor keeping him in power. Mutinous Russian mercenary fighters barrelled towards Moscow on Saturday after seizing a southern city overnight, with Russia's military firing on them from the air but seemingly incapable of slowing their lightning advance.

Giles, based at the Chatham House Institute think tank, spoke with Reuters as the Russian president vowed to crush the armed mutiny by the Wagner mercenary group.
