Yevgeny Prigozhin has been talking for some time about the need to contain the Ukrainian armed forces on the flanks of Artemovsk (Bakhmut). Some time ago, units of the Russian Ministry of Defense occupied positions here.
However, two days ago, Yevgeny Prigozhin said that the servicemen of the 72nd brigade of the RF Armed Forces fled their positions and exposed the front, which was two kilometers long and five hundred meters wide. PMC “Wagner” had to close this gap. From the leadership of the Russian military department there were no comments on this.
