10:04 pm
who died of one of the 10 people that passed away in that crash. right. and also the position the president himself sees him in at the moment. and what's the latest ortho, an investigation into that same fashion as well as we understand the remains of the bodies that they have to be found. investigators have found that the scene has been transported to more than nearby, and they are undergoing dna testing. and we also have heard from the russian foreign minister survey laboratories at that bricks conference in johannesburg, who also urge the russian population here to wait for the facts and not to listen to western media and their speculative and hysterical reporting as they usually refer to here we are waiting to get an official report from the investigative committee who is carrying out, as i said,
10:05 pm
dna testing at the moment. so we'll have to wait and see what the final report has to say. yeah. and many questions now. doors the about the future of wagner. what's going to happen to the move to its command structure now that you have guinea for goshen, it's leader and these deputy has been killed. yeah, certainly we as we understand that according to a number of social media accounts that belong to or support the group, i'd have close relationship with the whitening group. there is a special committee that is formed that is looking at there. we skipped restructuring the leadership and that was something that was at the request of the late getting promotion. he laid out the steps that this committee will follow in the events of his own death. so he foresaw the possibility that this will happen. and there are steps that were put in place. now what those steps are, we don't know this. the wagner group is a strongly secretive organization. and we are told that this committee is meeting
10:06 pm
and once they decide what they're going to do next and how they're going to move forward. after for goes and staff, they will issue a statement until then we would have to wait and see it would just be speculation to try and guess what they're going to do next week and a special response and the status on that. thank you very much, joseph, for that dose. is your battery in moscow? well, he now is full. brandon and taking a look at the vengeful career of the mine once known as fulton's chest, the sub jail, often seen on the front lines, usually dressed in the combat fatigues of a ministry commander if any precaution cultivated the image of an action man, the boss of the bank a group of ministry contract as percussion, proved himself willing and able to advance russian interest in a way the few others could achieve the bottom. he rose to pa, in russia from humble beginnings and some peaches, but he was a teenage criminal. subbing time for robbery and fraud. van became
10:07 pm
a hot dog salesman. then the man known as putin shift his catering company hosted events for the fall and lead us as well as vladimir putin private. but they parties and it wasn't until 2022. the production admitted that he had found at the wagon a private military company is earlier in east and ukraine has been so successful as a private so military company has become essentially a franchise. and so you have different, really, very distinct organizations that carry the same brand. it was the war and ukraine and watkins role in it, which cemented precautions importance from 2014 why the contracts had reinforced and organized the pro russian separatist fighters in crimea. and don't pass. wagner played a crucial role in russia's 2022 invasion. the handful of russian battlefield success is often coming as a result of precautions must enrich rather than regular russian troops. full,
10:08 pm
done with the political and financial backing on the president, putin and the criminal. obviously putting has created precaution regardless of a self made man. he just put most projects to create a sort of a competitive alternative military for assuming usher to boost the effectiveness of the regular russian army prouder and shrugged his phone. this video, selfies and uncompromising rhetoric boosted his popularity within russia and his profile outside of russia. but his temper, combined with a willingness to open the parade, the russian defense ministry undoubtedly made him enemies and exploits. if phil's rams about the lack of munition on the front lines was aimed directly at the general's in moscow. and expose the depth of the feud between precaution. i'm putting the closest command us. well not to go by pretty pop up. we have a 70 percent shortage of admission showing. go garage you month to month where
10:09 pm
where's the munition look at them? and i knew that progression ordered his fighters to advance on moscow. it set events in motion which made his downfall, perhaps inevitable precaution, cold of the march uprooted brands of the trees. and there was only going to be one when a precaution was forced to back down. observe, as was surprised, shocked even when the criminal announced that the boss would not face criminal charges from the rebellion. but precautions, life expectancy has been the topic of intense speculation. ever since pull brennan, i'll just 0. well, let's not take a look at some of the reactions in the subject of you have any precautions that has come up at the us kind of gone weekly briefing live to my kinda from washington dc . what have we heard mike from the pedagogy the pentagon has not confirmed a report put on by associated press,
10:10 pm
which claimed that an explosion destroyed the play and in which promotion was travelling at quoted and named intelligence officials, giving that particular version of events, no confirmation whatsoever of the sources of that ab story, the pentagon certainly cannot confirm that. we've just heard from the press secretary, i try to and this is what the pentagon press secretary at to say on the matter. our initial assessment is that it's likely provision was killed. we're continuing to assess the situation. we don't have any information to indicate right now. the press reporting, stating that there was some type of surface to air missile that took down the plan that we assessed that information to be inaccurate. must have point out as well that the press spokesman, subsequently clarify the statement that he made the when he said assessment is likely that presented isn't,
10:11 pm
was killed. he meant that he was on the plane and died in the crash. so clarification, the from the press secretary, but the pentagon saying that it's continuing its investigation. it has given what it has prepared to say publicly at this particular stage. mike, thank you for that. my kind of life for as in washington, dc for let's discuss the implications of all of this now in russia and also uh beyond russia with calling conklin the director of research at the so fond group. he's joining us from pittsburgh in the us. thank you for being with us. uh, a lot to talk about. we spoke of course 24 hours ago when this news 1st broke, that you have any precautions name was on the list of of passengers that died in that pain crush. just 2 hours ago. we finally heard from president fulton confirming unofficially confronting the death of you have any for goshen. what do you make of what we heard from 14 and why do you think it's to taking so long to make this statement to look, i think it's been a game for food and this whole time,
10:12 pm
i think he's methodically planned and how he was going to kill for, for goes and he did it on a 2 month anniversary of the board a q, uh q and even the language he used. it seemed like he was enjoying the amounts, but he kind of dragged it out. he, you know, referred derisively to for, goes in and, and talked about his mistakes. certainly not how you would, you'll address somebody that you actually revered. so i think couldn't was taking some real joy and kind of twisting the nice one final last time as he announced progression and stuff. yeah, he also said that we had to rush has investigated committee, was going to start investigating that this plane crash. what, what do you think we're going to see from this investigation howell, the kremlin? who are they likely to blame? look, i don't mind holding out high hopes that this investigation is gonna lead to anything . i'm sure they'll come up with some kind of fanciful explanation for mechanical
10:13 pm
failure, but it's becoming pretty obvious that this was a gang land style assassination. and really it was the only way that this could have ended, you know, prudence got a long history of eliminating any individual that crosses him in any way. and they certainly, he's killed people for far less, frankly. and so i think there were some real just kind of, you know, some real e full enjoyment. um and finally closing this chapter. and it now sets the stage for and then his allies to take over wagner's activities. but has, has it really close to the chapter because they, they are a lot of wagner mercenaries who are loyal to precautions, were loyal to precautions. could they raise a new challenge? you seem to put him? and i think that's a great point. in fact, uh well, who is attempting to close the chapter there, there will be individuals that are unhappy about this. we can see that in the
10:14 pm
imagery coming out of russia with the memorials that have popped up all around the country, including at at founder's headquarters in st. petersburg. so there will be individuals that are likely to push back this could lead to domestic political instability in russia in the short term. and so whether or not prudent and his inner circle are able to deal with that. that that's a question i think that's you have to be seen, but certainly not out of the woods in that regard. and. and so what's wagner's command structure? it is likely to look like now that both precaution and his deputy have been killed . is there a plan in place or is a good job now just completely going to be dysfunction. well, i think that's probably why i put in waited for 2 months to try to sort out those other issues before immediately getting rid of for goshen. i think you had to kind of put some kind of strategy in place so that when he ultimately did take this action, there was a ready set plan. there was an organizational structure. there was trusted
10:15 pm
lieutenants that were able to kind of take over the range because remember, this is a vast global organization, right. which one with multiple front cup and levers here. yeah, it is indeed a vast global organization and, and we're here at al jazeera, i've been talking, of course, about wagner's presence in africa, on the african continent. it's role and presence in, in libya, in syria as well for these countries. and leaders that have been relying on the fact that you think it's going to be business as usual for then now that the face of wagner has been eliminated, or are they perhaps reconsidering now their positions and relationships? a great question. i think the intention will be business as usual. whether or not there is a disruption will depend on some of the, you know, individuals within wagner to our loyal to, per goshen. how much you know of, of trouble during the day calls. and we already saw in bella rue, some. wagner mercenaries releasing a video, making threats, the bell of russians, and cut off the internet service,
10:16 pm
essentially to prevent walner troops in one country from talking to the other. so i think there's going to be some short term instability, but frankly, a lot of the leaders in these countries don't have other options. that's why they've turned to bog during the 1st place. thank you so much. great to hear your thoughts as always call and talk from these to find who joining a san from pittsburgh. thank you for your time or thank you. are you still ahead on alta 0? we'll be taking a look at the days i've been using find out why china has condemned japan's kaufman calling it selfish and irresponsible. the disappointedly, familiar sight is once again on wanting to give the british child coming in from the line to get looks like an awesome storm. and that's when really in september and we must accept it. but it's been like this whole summer had it's heading on
10:17 pm
skin for scandinavia, that had been flooded warnings as you know and studying in no way this month. the flood warnings i sense of i was like that's 5 potential to the adults because more writing is going to be folding on southern grand and it's and, and why wind cold front? so temperature is as it advances through the bulk of the european plane will tend to drop by 5 to 10 degrees. is it particularly there's support in the south of france? well see sun soaked breakout, possibly in switzerland, maybe north misty with the so plenty of heat still there for eastern europe, down through romania and back towards it's lee and southern spain was tempted as well above the average. the not quite the record breaking still halted a good positive no 5 for go out. you area. a prime case in point for the comes of shows that you see emanating from the sea and how's it going slow the west a few. and this is the latest running through new share and slow the westwood. nothing much unfortunately for the whole of africa,
10:18 pm
but very windy webinar running through the western cape of the, the, [000:00:00;00] the
10:19 pm
the welcome back you watching out you 0 life from doha. a reminder of our top story, this, our presence vitamin 14 has broken his files over the death of russia's most powerful mercenary wagner, chief of getting a goshen. he referred to progression as a talented businessman, who he's known since the ninety's. he says to follow the investigation into his test if any precaution was killed in a plane crash on wednesday along with 9 novice. as we said, he was listed on a list of passengers of a jet that came down north of must for wednesday. and the scott crash comes 2 months off of a former ally of 14, that a short lived significant against military leaders in moscow. now let's turn our attention to some of the days of in use. and donald trump is expected to surrender in the state of georgia in the coming hours. this is his 4th criminal indictment
10:20 pm
since april. the form of us present discharge with blankets, hearing and conspiracy door which during the 2020 election results in the state. 9 of his 18 co defendants have already surrendered to prosecute his, including his advisor and the former mayor of new york, rudy giuliani springing now and fisher was outside the court house in atlanta, georgia. donald trump expected. and just if you wise bring this up to speed with the latest development solid. yep. the couple of developments just in the last 20 minutes or so with donald trump has to be conducted on his trip social platform that the arrest time is $730.00. so he'll be in georgia by 7 stuckey, which means he'll be thinking of leaving his est investments there sometime in the next hour or so. you'll have to fulton county jail. well, he'll be processed. he will go through the system he'll be fingerprinted is waiting will be taken, of course will be fingerprints to the monk shot which everyone is waiting to see. they will then head back to bed means that there's a media traveling with them,
10:21 pm
but it's not clear whether he'll make any comment. if they don't, they prosecute them. case funding will assist us for the case to be brought forward . initially she was looking at a date in march. she's now asked the judge to say that the trial will start on october. the 20 thought that subpoena posted a motion put forward by donald trump's legal team. the reason she asked to move it is that one of the defendants ask for an emily trial. so rather than do it in march, she decided to bring it forward. the trump is asked to be separate from that defendant, essentially saying there's going to be a number of trials here. he doesn't want to go to trial. that sadly, the other thing to note is that in the early hours of today, so heavily this morning, rather than the hours donald trump changed his legal reference to that thing to mind you to come to the point hearing can find link. he's out, he's been replaced by steve said, oh, here's a well known local lawyer doing for defending celebrities in various cases. he'll be with the when he goes to fulton county jail. right. and we've been looking at
10:22 pm
pictures of fulton county jail with some of the drum supporters have gathered. talk to us about this, the process itself, how quickly is it likely to be completed as well? it's all on top is hoping it will be done in less time. than the others have been handled. martin made always who, of course was his chief of staff who for the idea of surrender, even took it to court to try and delete it or postpone it completely. lost that case. he's reached a deal on bill and has been just processed. he left the present the after another and sites. so we're probably somewhere in the same area for donald trump as well. take an hour to go through the whole process. certainly we know, 11 of the defendants have surrendered all but one has yet to agree bill conditions the house till lunch time tomorrow to surrender. if they do not at funding well, as the prosecutor, i said that she will start issuing wardens for the arrest. but you can see that
10:23 pm
