That's the first of your questions that we've put to our military analysts - and it comes from Bob. The ministry has said it is working to ensure all battlefield units have what they need. Mr Prigozhin has previously accused Russia's defence ministry of deliberately starving his forces of ammunition. The Wagner boss said his forces would stay in Bakhmut and keep insisting they get the ammunition they need "for a few more days".
"Apparently, the one is the person who signed it. "(But) if there is no ammunition, then we will leave our positions and be the ones asking who is really betraying the motherland.
That was the message to us," Mr Prigozhin said. "A combat order came yesterday which clearly stated that if we leave our positions (in Bakhmut), it will be regarded as treason against the motherland.
He delivered his latest tirade in an audio message which coincided with Russia marking the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany in the Second World War. Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin has claimed he has been told he and his men will be regarded as traitors if they abandoned their positions in the besieged city of Bakhmut.Īs both sides continue their bloody battle over the eastern city, Mr Prigozhin said for the second time in a matter of days that his forces would leave Bakhmut if they did not receive the ammunition they needed to press the battle.
