"Russian 'Exiled' Wagner Boss Reclaims Weapons in Triumphant Return"

Yevgeny Prigozhin, the founder of the Russian mercenary group Wagner, has returned to St. Petersburg to collect weapons confiscated from him by security services following his attempted insurrection last month. The arsenal reportedly includes rifles, firearms, and a Glock pistol gifted to Prigozhin by Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu. Prigozhin was also given back 10 billion rubles ($100 million) that were found during a raid on one of his vehicles. Despite the mutiny resulting in the deaths of Russian service members, Prigozhin has evaded criminal charges, causing tensions within Russia's national security community. The Russian military is now considering sending more prison inmates and Chechen troops to fill gaps in the Ukraine frontline left by Wagner's departure.
