Yevgeniy Prigozhin, the owner of the Wagner Group, a Russian mercenary force, offered to give Ukraine information on Russian troop positions in exchange for Ukrainian soldiers withdrawing from the area around Bakhmut, according to leaked US intelligence documents. Prigozhin has publicly criticized Russian military commanders for failing to equip and resupply his forces, but is also an ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Ukrainian officials confirmed Prigozhin's contacts with their military intelligence directorate, but rejected his offer due to distrust. The leaked documents also reveal a power struggle between Prigozhin and top Russian officials.
