to moscow as well. there s increased security in moscow with what s being called anti terror measures. the m4 motorway which links the russian capital with cities in south such as rostov is closed because of a military convey that is moving along it. the kremlin has called for prigozhin s arrest with top russian generals telling wagner forces to stand down. and the russian president vladimir putin has given a tv address and said russia is facing a betrayal. here s mr putin s television address to the russian nation. translation: russia is engaged in a fight for its future. the entire military information might have the worst has been sent against us. we are fighting for our independence. we are fighting for our right to remain russia. a country with 1000 years of history. today, the fate of our people is being decided. we need the consolidation of all forces. everything has to be discarded that weakens us. anything that can be used and is being used to subvert us
