The Kremlin spokesman says the head of the private Russian military company Wagner owner will move to Belarus as part of deal to defuse rebellion tensions and the criminal case against him will be closed. After the deal was reached, Yevgeny Prigozhin said he was ordering his troops to halt their march on Moscow and retreat to field camps in Ukraine. The deal appeared to defuse a dramatically escalating crisis.
