Russian intelligence officials have been ordered “to assassinate” paramilitary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin, according to Ukraine’s top military spy, in retaliation for the Wagner Group’s abortive uprising.
“The FSB was charged with a task to assassinate him,” Maj. Gen. Kyrylo Budanov, the Ukrainian defense intelligence chief, told the War Zone. “Will they be successful in doing that? We'll see with time. So in any case, all of such potential assassination attempts will not be fast.”
