Russian paramilitary group Wagner's leader, Yevgeny Prigozhin, has accused the Russian army of shelling his fighters, leading to a mutiny. The Russian government has declared a counterterrorism state of emergency and is stepping up security arrangements in Moscow, Rostov, and Lipetsk. Wagner fighters are active in African countries such as Mali and the Central African Republic, where they have helped the government train the army and maintain security. The Kazakh President has called the events an internal Russian affair, emphasizing the importance of constitutional order and the rule of law in maintaining order.
