The head of the Wagner Mercenary group has called off an armed uprising in Russia. Yevgeny Prigozhin had directed his forces along a major highway towards Moscow, saying he wanted to oust Russia's military leadership. But in a post on the messaging service Telegram, Prigozhin has now said Wagner is pullings its troops back to avoid spilling Russian blood.
The city of Rostov-on-Don near the Russian border with Ukraine went through a turbulent day. Wagner's forces arrived there early on Saturday, securing control of key military positions. But after less than 24 hours, they could soon be leaving.
