In a video posted on Telegram, militia leader Wagner attacked the Russian defense minister and chief of staff. He threatens to leave the Ukrainian front if the Kremlin army does not provide new ammunition to his troops.
The war of leaders is total between the Russian Minister of Defense and the boss of the Wagner militia. In a macabre video, where you can see several bodies, Evgueni Prigojine launched hostilities on the night of Thursday May 4 to Friday May 5. He attacked the Minister of Defense and the Russian Chief of Staff. Wagner’s chief has been accusing the Russian military of not supplying him with enough ammunition for several months now, but this time he has moved on to threats. On his Telegram channel, he said he would leave the city of Bakhmout (Ukraine) on May 10.
Ukraine prepares to launch a counter-offensive
This Ukrainian city has been the epicenter of the fighting for several months. On the Russian side, Wagner’s militiamen are in the front line. What would become of the Russian army without Wagner? During the day on Friday, the Minister of Defense, visiting the battlefields, seemed to respond to him on the ground, announcing “give the order to monitor supply problems in particular”. For Vladimir Putin, these dissensions come at a crucial moment as Ukraine prepares to launch a counter-offensive.
