Russian TG channels write that in Moscow for the first time after the Wagner coup they saw the disgraced General Surovikin, who previously sympathized with Yevgeny Prigozhin.

Now the leaders of the Wagner PPK have been destroyed, and Surovikin has retired from prison or where he was kept instead of the post of commander of the Air Force.
Surovikin’s photo was published by Ksenia Sobchak in the Bloody Lady telegram channel.
General Sergei Surovikin left. Alive, healthy, at home, with his family, in Moscow.
A blogger close to the Kremlin notes that the photo was taken today, but does not specify where the general “came out”.
A few minutes earlier, Interfax reported that journalists asked Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu about the fate of Surovikin, but he refused to answer the question whether the investigation against the general was ongoing.
Surovikin disappeared from the public arena after Prigozhin’s rebellion at the end of June. The media wrote that he was removed from service and detained by the FSB. And on August 22, information appeared that Surovikin was removed from the post of commander of the Military Space Forces.
According to Western media, Surovikin knew about Yevgeny Prigozhin’s plans to start an uprising and return his mercenaries to Moscow.
Until recently, Surovikin was considered a likely ally of Prigozhin. According to the Russian Dossier project, he has allegedly been an honorary member of the Wagner PIK since 2017 with a badge numbered M-3744.
On the first day of the Wagner coup, Surovikin wrote down an appeal to the mercenaries with a proposal to stop the campaign against Moscow.
