Russia drops charges against mercenary leader and others involved in brief rebellion

In this handout photo taken from video released by Prigozhin Press Service, Yevgeny Prigozhin, the owner of the Wagner Group military company, records his video addresses in Rostov-on-Don, Russia, Saturday, June 24, 2023.

The announcement follows the Kremlin's earlier pledge not to prosecute Yevgeny Prigozhin and his fighters after he stopped the revolt, even though President Vladimir Putin labeled them as traitors.
