Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin announced on Saturday that all public events in the Russian capital have been canceled as part of the anti-terrorism measures introduced after private military company Wagner Group claimed to have taken control of a military building in Rostov.
Sobyanin stressed that all city services will work "in full" and that "movement around the city is not difficult."
Earlier, the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) urged the Wagner Group not to carry out "criminal and treacherous orders" issued by Prigozhin but to arrest him instead.
