Putin’s Wagner Group vows Bakhmut capture by March; 'Monstrous Russian Bureaucracy...'

The boss of Russia's private mercenary group - Wagner, has claimed that Bakhmut can only be captured by March or April. Heavy fighting is underway with both the Russian Army and the Wagner Group engaging Ukrainian troops in the strategic city in east Ukraine's Donetsk region. He also slammed Moscow's "monstrous bureaucracy" for slowing military gains. "To take Bakhmut you have to cut all supply routes. It is a significant task," he said. Watch this video for more details.

Prigozhin has a tendency to emphasise the difficulty on the battlefield. Then he is slow in claiming any new territorial win of his forces. This helps him build his image and image of his Wagner forces. Proceding in this manner has been working for Wagner

It's always funny to hear that Wagner supposedly recruits so many people from prisons. When you see how the Ukrainian army is being put through the wringer by Wagner, it means, conversely, that Russian prison inmates are better trained than Ukrainians who are being trained by NATO. In Russian prisons, it seems that every inmate undergoes intensive military training.

Russian army have their reasons for not taking Bakhmut in a few days, with or without Wagner. More Ukrainian hardware and soldiers are destroyed, better for them, this was repeated so many times i'm starting to ask myself if people claiming Bakhmut will take months are Americans.

They are ready inside in few Directions

Well done Russia. Second time in history Russia managed to defeat the Nazis armies.

This is actually not what Wagner boss Prigozhin has said, he has just publicly stated in footage that he published on the 16. February, that they won't be able to encircle (not capture) Bakhmut before sometime in March or April, and that this also is difficult to predict, because of the new weaponry Ukraine will be getting now.

The Wagner Group just ran all out of convicts according to Prigozhin himself, and are more or less also seem to be out of "professional" soldiers in the Bakhmut area, so there is not much left they can do now on their own.

Ukraine can keep counterattacking in bakhmut, yea they will take some ground but each time they will lose power and fail

[kaspertube]

rumor has it that Prigozhin is not only the boss of the Wagner Group but that he is also Putin's chef

[hibomaxamad]

There is no Bakhmut City the new Name is Wagner City. 🇷🇺✊🥰🙋‍♀️

[joeboy]

🤣🤣😂😂Seriously HT must get something right at some point! Wagner is finished and lost around 30, 000 dead in 12 months trying to take Bakhmut and has taken 2 kilometres! Yet HT says every day almost Bakhmut is about to fall! 😂😂🤣🤣👌👌

Prigozhin was asked if they could capture Bakhmut in nearest future as many saying. And he answered who is fantasying that kind of bullshit. Bakhmut wont even be surrounded in the nearest time. Ukrainians get there 300 troops daily. And if we talking about times its probably march/april and not even clear depending on Ukrainian defence.
