Russia and Ukraine

[Pat Mustard]

Seems like Wagner is running away

They may be, but if so, it looks like their escape route goes through bakhmut - as wagner is pulling all of it's people in toward the city at present moment - according to ukraine.

Prigo isn't wrong about any of the shit he's complaining about, though I doubt he genuinely gives a shit...either.  The russian ministry of defense has clearly fucked the pooch on multiple levels and from the pov of a wagner merc, at least, it can't possibly matter why that happened, only that it did.

The main reason Prigozyn was crying was because the officer in charge of logistics, who was selling him stuff at knock down prices, was removed from his post a few months ago (and resigned the other day to take up a senior post in Wagner).

Looks like they've made up, Wagner and the RAF, because now they're "staying in the fight". Probably Shoigu had Prigozyn over for dinner and casually mentioned that he was deploying new Chechen stopping battalions in the area behind Bakhmut and they were exceptionally well armed.
