Evgeny Prigozhin claims victory in Bakhmut battle to manifest significant turn in war in Ukraine

Head of the Wagner mercenary force claimed on Wednesday that battle for Ukraine's frontline eastern city of Bakhmut "almost destroyed the Ukrainian army" and "battered" his group.

In a comment on Telegram, Evgeny Prigozhin said the battle for Bakhmut was planned by his commanders last summer and his fighters are steadily implementing it.

"The battle for Bakhmut today has almost destroyed the Ukrainian army and, unfortunately, has pretty much battered the Wagner PMC," he said.

Prigozhin said his fighters "are destroying foreign forces" that are trying "bring Russia to its knees," and winning the battle will be "a great turn in the war."

Russian forces have been trying for months to capture Bakhmut, a transport and logistics hub in Ukraine’s Donetsk, which is part of the largely Russian-speaking industrialized Donbas region.

“Bakhmut, a transport and logistics hub in Ukraine’s Donetsk, which is part of the largely Russian-speaking industrialized Donbas region.”

Why would the Russians want another industrialized region?

Biden could also be the Tin Man and Scarecrow because in addition to not having any courage, he’s got no brain or heart.

I hope the Russians get the whole thing.

They have blown the whole dam region to hell and I do not want my money going to rebuild the GD place. Let the Russians rebuild it.

Conveniently left out of the title.

The map was drawn by people with an agenda. I don’t trust ANY news that comes out of that war.
