A feud between Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of the Russian paramilitary organization Wagner Group, and Russia s top military brass escalated as Prigozhin s forces left the front line in Ukraine and marched across the border to seize a key Russian city. They then marched north toward Russia s capital, seemingly unopposed, before turning around just hours later. The short-lived rebellion was described by international observers as the most significant challenge to Russian President Vladimir Putin s authority in his more than 20 years of rule.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian troops are in the early stages of a counteroffensive to reclaim the almost one-fifth of Ukraine’s territory that is under Russian control.
