Prigozhin’s statement is published by his press service.
“I am already contacting its representatives in order to immediately begin transfers of positions, so that on May 10, at 00:00, exactly when, according to our calculations, we will completely exhaust our combat potential, our comrades will take our places and continued the ‘assault on the settlement of Bakhmut,’ said the head of the Wagner PMC.
