According to British security sources, Russia’s secret service warned that harm would come to the families of the leaders if the group continued their advance towards Moscow.
The Wagner group was estimated to have had 8,500 fighters, rather than the previously claimed 25,000, as they marched towards certain defeat.
It is believed that Russian President Vladimir Putin will try to incorporate the Wagner soldiers into the Russian military and remove the group’s former leaders.
On Saturday, the leader of the coup attempt, Mr Prigozhin, ordered his troops to stop their march to Moscow after taking control of Rostov-on-Don to avoid causing harm to Russians. He agreed to go into exile in Belarus.
