Russian President Vladimir Putin's plane took off from Moscow early Saturday morning, heading towards St. Petersburg before disappearing from flight tracking radar. The news comes as Wagner forces appear to be descending on Moscow in hours.
Putin's presidential plane left at 14:16 Moscow time. Spokesman Dmitry Peskov denied Putin had run away, saying he "is working at the Kremlin." The Russian government’s aircraft headed for Valdai, one of Putin’s bunkers. Top Russian officials are also fleeing Moscow on business jets as quickly as possible.
