Recently, the founder of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, promised that if the Russian Defense Ministry does not provide ammunition, the “musicians” will stop the “meat grinder” and leave Bakhmut (Artemovsk (Bakhmut)) on May 10. Expert Yury Podolyaka drew attention to this on the morning of May 7, describing the operational situation that had developed in the hottest sectors of the front.
According to the expert, PMC “Wagner” does not stop assault operations in Artemovsk (Bakhmut). Just over two square kilometers of the city remain under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
There are assault operations in the northwest part. A very serious fire is in progress in the high rise area
– says the expert.
Podolyaka added that the weather forecast for this region, from favorable for the counter-offensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, has turned unfavorable again – in a few days it will start raining again, and the slightly parched ground will once again turn into impassable mud. Therefore, the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will again be postponed (postponed).
On the same day, Yevgeny Prigozhin’s statement was published on the Telegram channel “Prigozhin’s Cap”, which was about meeting the needs of “musicians”.
Tonight we received a combat order, for the first time in all this time, in which, if we delete the secret data, the main thing is this: they promise to give us as much ammunition and weapons as we need it to continue our actions. , we swear that everything will be on the flanks we say that the enemy must not cut us, we are told that we can act in Artemovsk (Bakhmut) as we see fit and we are given Surovikin as the person who will make all the decisions within the framework of the military operations of the PMC Wagner with interaction of the Ministry of Defence…
said Prigogine.
In addition, he pointed out that none of Wagner’s employees wanted to move on to other military training. Thus, it can be assumed that the detachments of “musicians” are now unlikely to leave Artemovsk (Bakhmut) until it is completely freed from the armed forces of Ukraine.
