Russian Defence Ministry said that mercenaries of the Wagner Group are completing the handover of their weapons to the Russian military. The move follows the private army's brief rebellion last month that challenged the Kremlin's authority. The disarming of Wagner appears to be an end to the mercenary group's operations on the battlefield in Ukraine. The actions come amid continued uncertainty about the fate of Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin. The Defence Ministry said that among the weapons turned over were more than 2,000 pieces of equipment, such as tanks, rocket launchers, heavy artillery and air defence systems, along with over 2,500 metric tons of munitions and more than 20,000 firearms.
