Eliminating Ilya's team was part of the post-coup restructuring to consolidate Altman's power, and every tribute to "safety" paid since then is spin.

Definitions of dissolve:

to cause to disperse or disappear

to separate into component parts

to become dissipated (see DISSIPATE sense 1) or decompose

BREAK UP, DISPERSE

Those seem like pretty accurate descriptions of what happened. Yes, dissolve can also mean something stronger, so perhaps it is fair to call the statement ambiguous. But it isn’t incorrect.
