Putin's 'Butcher' Threatens to End Ukraine Campaign Over Moscow's Interference.

Yevgeniy Prigozhin, the mercenary chief of the Wagner Group, has threatened to withdraw his men from Ukraine if Moscow continues to be led by "clowns," widening the rift between his group and military command. Prigozhin, known as Putin's chef or "butcher," wants a "section of the front where we can fight independently without anyone's help." The feud between Prigozhin and Russia's military command has intensified after a change of personnel earlier this year, which saw the army decrease support for Wagner troops.
