"Looking for reasons to go": The Armed Forces reacted to Prigogine's statement about Bakhmut

According to the speaker of the eastern group of Sergei Cherevatov, "Wagnerivtsi" is not in the Donbass not ammunition, but human. They lack people catastrophically. In the Armed Forces of Ukraine, they responded to the statements of the owner of PEC "Wagner" Yevgeny Prigogin, who intends to withdraw his fighters from Bakhmut on May 10. The speaker of the eastern group of troops Sergey Cherevy expressed his opinion on this occasion in a comment to the BBC on May 5.

According to him, Russian statements may have their own purpose and are not true at all. This is done for two reasons: the "Wagnets" ends the human reserve, and between Yevgeny Prigogin and the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation continues internal confrontation. "For many months, Prigogine has been trying to make outrageous statements to attract attention. In this day, 137 people have been destroyed, 202 are injured, they suffer great losses.

Therefore, they are looking for reasons to go," the statement said. At the same time, Sergei Cherevaty believes that in fact the Wagner PEC is not ammunition, but human. The head of the Defense Ministry Sergei Shoigu does not send them to the help of people in the amount that they would like to see Eugene Prigogine. The APU also believes that despite the statements on the transfer of positions, the "Wagnerivtsi" will continue to attack the Armed Forces.

In the last day alone, 43 combat collisions and 520 shellings were recorded. "The intensity of the fighting does not fall. I think they continue to do everything to capture Bakhmut by May 9," the message reads. On Friday, May 5, the video appeared on the network recorded by Yevgeny Prigogin. He stated that his fighters were going to leave the city of Bakhmut in the Donetsk region on May 10, since they have no ammunition.

"I officially address to the Chief of General Staff, Minister of Defense, the Supreme Commander -in -Chief and the people of Russia. To bring the remnants of Wagner PEC to the rear camps to lick wounds, " - said in the message. At the same time, he said that a lack of ammunition at 70%, which leads to high losses among personnel. The date of May 10 was chosen to give the Russians calmly hold the Victory Day.
