On Friday morning, Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of the Wagner mercenary group, released a 30-minute video challenging Russian President Vladimir Putin's motives for invading Ukraine and accusing the Russian Ministry of Defense of ordering airstrikes on Wagner fighters.

Early Sunday morning, Giselle, Dalibor, and Iulia gathered to discuss the 36-hour mutiny, including its impact on the balance of power in Russia and the opportunities it may provide for Ukraine's counteroffensive.
