The founder and head of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin once again criticized the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. According to him, the problem with the supply of ammunition remains. At the same time, both the “musicians” and the units of the RF Armed Forces covering the flanks have a shortage of shells.
A criminal command was given not to give ammunition. Ammunition accumulates in warehouses in batches, as I already said. The number of people in PMC "Wagner" is drying up. The dead, the wounded and those who left after the end of the contract […] There is a bloody battle. They don't give us shells. And we do everything impossible on the minimum amount that we currently have
- said the head of PMC "Wagner".
Against the backdrop of the upcoming offensive, Yevgeny Prigozhin considers such actions by yet unnamed representatives of the Russian Defense Ministry a crime against all of Russia. He is sure that the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will definitely begin as soon as the ground dries up. The head of the PMC "Wagner" said that he would name those who keep the shells in warehouses.
Due to the fact that there are no shells, we have nothing to destroy enemy artillery. All the names, the names of these scoundrels are on my piece of paper. The time will come - and the Russian people will ask this question. And I will answer it with confidence […] I think that what is happening today is a crime against Russia and the Russian people. And this should not be ignored. Criminals must be held accountable
Prigogine emphasized.
Despite the difficulties, the head of the "orchestra" spoke about the preparation of the reserves of the PMC "Wagner" in order to continue to grind the Armed Forces of Ukraine and disrupt the counteroffensive. In his opinion, while the “musicians” are pinning down the enemy in Artemovsk, the RF Armed Forces could launch an attack on Slavyansk or Kramatorsk.
