TL;DR Summary

U.S. officials claim that a senior Russian general, Gen. Sergei Surovikin, had prior knowledge of Yevgeny Prigozhin's plans to rebel against Russia's military leadership. They are investigating whether Gen. Surovikin aided Prigozhin's actions, which posed a significant threat to President Vladimir Putin. There are indications that other Russian generals may have also supported Prigozhin's attempt to change the leadership of the Defense Ministry by force. If evidence implicates Gen. Surovikin, Putin will likely have to remove him from his command. The situation highlights the infighting within Russia's military leadership and could signal a wider fracture between supporters of Prigozhin and Putin's top military advisers.
