Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] Businessman Yevgeny Prigozhin dissolved the Patriot media holding. This was announced on June 30 by a source in the company.

According to him, after the dissolution of the media holding, publications such as RIA FAN, Narodnye Novosti, Ekonomika Segodnya, Politika strany and others will cease to operate. The reasons for restricting access to resources are not specified, according to NEWS.ru.

Employees have already announced the layoffs of the entire staff.

A day earlier, anonymous Telegram channels reported a possible sale of Prigozhin's media assets. However, there was no official or confirmed information from both the seller and potential buyers.

As IA Regnum reported, in the early morning of June 24, Wagner PMC fighters, led by businessman Yevgeny Prigozhin, attempted to organize an armed coup in Russia. President Vladimir Putin called the actions of PMCs an attempt at rebellion.

The Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko , in agreement with the Russian leader, spoke with Prigozhin, as a result, they reached agreements on a peaceful resolution of the situation. The Wagner convoy stopped, and other PMC fighters left Rostov-on-Don.

Andrei Kartapolov , head of the State Duma Committee on Defense , said that Prigozhin, the founder of Wagner PMC, refused to sign a contract with the Ministry of Defense, after which he was informed that this structure would not participate in the SVO.

#2 Prigozhin won't get any more security/military business from Russia, so I think his shuttering of his media outlets and his group's exile to Belarus is part of the deal that ended his beef against the Russian Ministry of Defense.

He does have a Telegram account, iffin you're interested.
