Good evening. The fallout from Yevgeny Prigozhin’s aborted mutiny continues, as Vladimir Putin said the Wagner militia has been entirely supported by the Russian state since it joined the war. And in Lancashire, a coroner has ruled that Nicola Bulley’s death was an accident.

Ukraine has for the first time liberated territory which has been under Russian control since 2014, British intelligence officials said. 

Joe Barnes has more details on where the small patch of land is located. 

It came as Vladimir Putin claimed that Moscow has paid $1 billion to the Wagner group in the past year and entirely financed the mercenary fighters since the start of the Ukraine war. 

Alexander Lukashenko, the Belarus president, has taken credit for stopping the mutiny. To read our coverage of Putin’s speech and the latest on the war in Ukraine, read our live blog.
