Evgeny Prigozhin, the head of Wagner Group, said that Russian air defense systems may have been involved in the downing of four military aircraft in Russia’s Bryansk region. Prigozhin’s comments were made in response to a question from the outlet NewsInfo.

In his response, Prigozhin suggested checking whose air defenses could possibly be located at the center of the 20 kilometer (12 mile) radius of the four downed aircraft. He added that he hadn’t been updated on the matter and that he’s been focused on the battle for Bakhmut.
