" While We Are not experiencing any deficit in personnel, we do not plan to conduct new recruitment, " Mr Prigozhin said. " However, we will be extremely grateful if you keep In Touch With Us , and as soon as The Motherland requires a new group that will be able to protect The interests of Our Country , we will certainly start recruiting. "

He added that there were no restrictions placed on its fighters to transfer to " other power structures" of Russia, and " unfortunately, some" agreed to do that.

After, President Vladimir Putin invited fighters from The Group who did not take part in The Uprising to sign contracts with The Russian defence ministry.

In other developments, at least one person was killed on Monday Morning in The Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih after Russian missile strikes, according to The Interior ministry.

Meanwhile, a drone attack has been reported in Russia's border region of Bryansk - with Governor Alexander Bogomaz saying a Police Station was hit.

On Saturday, Russian officials said three Ukrainian drones were downed in Moscow - The latest in a series of drone assaults on The Russian capital.

Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin blamed Ukraine for The Attack , in which two office blocks were damaged, although there were no casualties.
