• Wagner rebellion ends - latest updates

The chief of the rebel Wagner mercenary force Yevgeny Prigozhin will leave Russia and won't face charges after calling off his troops' advance towards Moscow, as reports emerged that US spy agencies had picked up signs days ago that he was preparing to rise up against Russia's defence establishment.

Late on Saturday, video emerged of Prigozhin leaving the headquarters of the southern military district in the Russian city of Rostov-on-Don after agreeing to move to Belarus. His exact whereabouts on Sunday morning were not clear. Images also showed Wagner fighters withdrawing from the city.
