Yevgeny Prigozhin announces the withdrawal of his Wagner mercenaries from Bakhmut. He apparently does not trust the Russian army to defend the Donbass city.
He becomes malicious. According to information from Kyiv, Ukrainian defenders are still holding out in BakhMut. The Ministry of Defense from Moscow had recently admitted that Russian troops had been pushed back at the front. However, it is not true that the PMC Wagner ammunition had been withheld, it was said from the Russian capital.
