Why are you generalizing? Maybe it's better to say correctly that you can't trust Prigozhin, Wagner's boss??

 

Don't you believe such respected Russians as Navalny, Khodorkovsky, Kasparov?

I think Mavideol was referring to Russians in or connected to the evil Putin regime. They have proven time and time again that they are full of sh*t and that they are always lying through their teeth.

I know, but if they don’t get any ammunition anymore, how are they going to continue to fight?

Personally, I'm sure boss Wagner is lying. He is a friend and personal waiter of Putin. He personally poured wine for Putin and whiskey for George W. Bush when they drank together.

 

Therefore, Putin will always give him any weapon. It's most likely a trap. If the Ukrainians believe him and throw their best troops into the gap near Bakhmut, Wagner will immediately have a million Calibers and Sarmats with which he will destroy them.

 

Ukrainians should be smarter. Pretend that they believed Wagner, but it is better to attack elsewhere. Where they are not expected.

Thank you for this funny information about the "waiter". 

I think both sides are trying to mislead the other one, and are well aware their opponent is doing the same.

Reuters: Russia's Wagner threatens to leave Bakhmut, Ukraine says mercenaries reinforcing

 

"Russia's main mercenary group announced plans on Friday to withdraw from the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, but Ukraine said the fighters were reinforcing positions to try to seize it before Russia marks World War Two Victory Day next week."

 

Calling Captain HIMARS...

It’s a clear signal that Prighozin is a complete lunatic, but I think most of us knew that already.

Lack of air power to take down the aircraft that are raining this on the city.

 

It's time NATO stepped in and put a no fly zone over Ukraine and then moved on to end this madman's mad ambitions.

Ukraine war: Evacuation prompts Zaporizhzhia nuclear safety warning

 

The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has voiced concern about the safety of Europe's largest nuclear plant as Russian occupation forces evacuate civilians from the nearby Ukrainian town of Enerhodar.

 

The IAEA statement said that "while operating staff remain at the site, Director General Grossi expressed deep concern about the increasingly tense, stressful, and challenging conditions for personnel and their families".

 

It said the IAEA experts present at the plant had "received information that the announced evacuation of residents from the nearby town of Enerhodar - where most plant staff live - has started".

That guy is all over the place. I just read that he had asked Ramzan Kadyrov to send his Chechen army to replace the Wagner fighters in Bachmut.

Don't be naive. It's just a video. No one knows whose corpses are actually in this video and whether they are real. Perhaps these are the corpses of Ukrainians, and perhaps the manikins are sprinkled with ketchup.
Prigogine's concert is just a smoke screen.

US confident in Ukraine's claim it used Patriot system to down hypersonic missile

The U.S. has "high confidence" in the accuracy of Ukraine’s claim that it used a Patriot air defense system to intercept a Russian Kh-47 Kinzhal ballistic missile, a source familiar with the matter told CNN.

"While the Patriot system has been successful in countering ballistic missiles, its ability to stop air-launched hypersonic missiles was purely theoretical before last week," CNN said, adding that Ukraine’s intercept has now provided "a real-world demonstration of that capability" — something that has been viewed within the Pentagon as a major development, the source said.

Vladimir Putin claims he wants ‘peace’ in Victory Day speech - hours after Russian missiles rain down on Ukraine

[rudi49jr]

Victory Day parade a huge success. Or maybe not, as panicky Putin rushed through his speech to open a diminished parade with far fewer troops than usual and a solitary rusty tank.
 

Apparently Vlad was scared there was going to be an assassination attempt on his life. Pity that didn’t happen, though.
