The head of the "Vagner" PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin:

"I cannot comment in any way on Shoigu's words. I did not meet him in Artemivsk. Regarding the movement of the front after the "mopping up of Bakhmut". In Bakhmut, according to various estimates, from 12 to 20 thousand AFU fighters. 12-20 thousand Ukrainian military by tomorrow morning is very difficult to kill. There are such masters only in the depths of the General Staff or in Soyuzmultfilm. Let us stop running ahead of the locomotive and saying that we have taken Bakhmut, and what will happen after that.

Let us take the bear down in peace. Believe me, we are doing everything for this, although we are still not given ammunition, military equipment, weapons, transport. Where the front will move after the capture of Artemovsk, ask Sergei Kuzhugetovich. I do not know why Sergey Kuzugetovich is telling us about these prospects. Perhaps to please the Russian audience. Perhaps to annoy Zelensky. We feel Zelensky's anger, and the Russian audience's joy made them pile flowers on the entrance to the Ministry of Defense for March 8.
As for the losses of the AFU, I think that the Defense Minister assessed them correctly. The Wagner PMC eliminated about 11 thousand people in February. As for Bakhmut: there are heavy battles both day and night, but Ukrainians are not escaping anywhere. Zelensky is not running out of people, more and more thousands are being thrown into the "meat grinder. They have ammunition and weapons up to their ass, that is, a fucking ton. Once again, pay attention! The Ukrainians are not running away. They are dying en masse for Bakhmut and surrendering only as a last resort. Stop thinking of them as cowards. They are just like us, and the same blood flows in them.
