In an angry tirade released on video, Yevgeny Prigozhin, chief of Wagner PMC, the mercenary group leading Russia’s offensive in eastern Ukraine, said Friday that his forces will withdraw from the high-profile battle for Bakhmut due to a lack of military support from Moscow.

Ummm it sounds like a rant and bad words many bad words.❤
Propaganda.
Can’t fight a war with no ammo. Don’t know why they’re bothering to fight with boots on the ground in this day and age. There’s much more effective tactics.
I just seen a video where Russia literally rained fire on the city.
If they leave,,, I hope they line up in single file and walk right into…
pulling out gonna use bigger munitions
Is Wagner running out of ammo or running out of cannon fodder? Or perhaps some other despot in Africa made General Prig a sweeter deal. Or as others have speculated, he is bluffing.
Perhaps his old buddy Vlad will invite Gen. Prig to the Kremlin for a cup of tea for old times sake.
Slaughter is the only medicine for Wagner. Forward Observations Group a great dent in their numbers, thankfully.
Drop a rocket on his head while his talking end of story
Yeah they're dead now
Better hope he isn’t lying cause it could be a trap
Putin will put Wagner leader in the kitchen as dishwasher in kremlin
Who going hire Wagner group the pirates
More blowhard BS. Move along, nothing to see here.
They’re so bad at lying it’s laughable. They’re like a kid hiding behind a door but you know they’re there because they’re giggling……
Punditry is usually something that annoys me, but here: you should really have a national security analyst providing additional insight.
Don't take a video like this at face value, I'm saying that as a former military analyst. In the few instances like these, viewers really do need extra context. Russia uses the information space, traditional media, and social media as an additional theater for conflict, never loose sight of that consideration.
This could be genuine, the Russian elites could be punishing his brazen behavior; or it could be a play to instigate the Russian people; or it could be intended as a trap for Ukrainian forces… Or a half dozen other things.
That sounds like a trap. Why wait 4 days to leave. You have no bullets, you should leave IMMEDIATELY.
Don't believe a word he says. Russians are a culture of loud mouth, lying cowards.
This is what goes for a clever distraction tactic.
Russia knows exactly what it is doing. If they keep going this way they will have an excuse to use nukes
Lol ukraine needs to be nuked ngl 🚬🔥💯 smoking zlensky pack
Nice ISIS look! I was waiting for them to bring out someone to conduct a beheading or something.
when people whose job is literally to be a paid war criminal wont go to war for you then you really know you are doing something wrong.
Don’t just leave bahkmut, leave ukraine entirely and never come back
Why are we celebrating these deserters?
Not to be trusted. Russians are notorious for their 'false flag' speeches and the actions that follow in their wake.
Its a trap!!!
Wow, battlefield theatrics now showing how Russia is losing the war. It would be funny but whole cities are destroyed in Ukraine, so many lives taken and scattered for another proxy war for profit. Humanity should change its name to inhumanity!
