▶️‘Our commander is gold. He always leads from the front’. That is how fighters from the People's Militia of the LPR describe their battalion commander with the callsign ‘Wingman’.

Wingman often fights on the front line right beside his troops. He has risked his life several times. The commander says that the war forced him to look at life differently: ‘I saw real people here, and I saw real men, peeled of everything, without any kind of shell. All that falls off very quickly’.

Watch our new documentary, ‘Heroes of Donbass. Battalion Commander’, if you want to know about Wingman’s story.

It's not that she's such a hero. She's just a normal decent human being. If you're not willing to face a fine or jail for your principles, FOR REAL, you're not a human being, you're a poseur piece of shit, compared to which, a decent human being looks like a hero... And BTW, I've been to prison for my principles, and risked my life in combat for them, so if you haven't, better not comment, except to say thanks to her, and me.

🔥Ukrainian soldier tells truth about poor training of AFU troops
To defeat Russia they lacked skills and ammunition.

We got a unique audio recording where an AFU soldier, speaking to a relative who had just to go to the front, described all the "pleasures" of Ukrainian training.

"When we were training, they told us that we would be "like animals", but we arrived at the front and a Russian sniper shot everyone".


Thus, according to him, during pre-fight training the Ukrainian military was instilled with thoughts of fearlessness, weak Russians and confidence in victory. But the reality was more frightening: he saw stacked Cargo-200s driving past and a Russian sniper who "shot all of ours".

Chechen troops will replace Wagner PMC units in Bakhmut, says  Ramazan Kadyrov.

Here's the full statement from Kadyrov:

I appeal to the Minister of Defense, Sergey Shoygu, the Chief of General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, and the founder of the PMC "Wagner".

I, like everyone not indifferent to the fate of our country, hate to hear the latest statements by Yevgeny Viktorovich, and it is doubly unpleasant that the leadership of the Russian Ministry of Defense does not comment or does not meet with the leadership of the "Wagner" PMC to make any decision or clarification. After all, Prigozhin deserves respect for the invaluable contribution of the Wagnerians to the liberation of the cities of Donbass.
If there is a shortage, then it is necessary to explain and show, on the basis of which the commanders will at least adjust the further tactics of the Wagner units, without relying on artillery.

I recall the experience of Chechen units in Mariupol. When we needed five tanks from the Ministry of Defense to support the infantry, we could only be allocated one, whose crew left the vehicle in the first battle. The tankers then had to be reassured, tuned up for combat, and put back in the vehicle so that they could cover at least one position of the Azov Satanists with salvos. There were problems with other equipment as well. We have not been able to replace 30 artillery cannons since the beginning of the SMO. I personally called Moscow and talked to commanders and superiors. In a month, the problem was solved. Yes, it did not work on the first call. But our units did not record the clips either; they did not give the enemy pleasant informational victory.

... By the way, it is not right to film the bodies of killed comrades-in-arms for the sake of public outcry is wrong.Let us never do that.

For example, the area of responsibility of Apta Alaudinov, my dear brother, commander of special forces "AKHMAT" and deputy commander of the 2nd army corps of the Russian Armed Forces, includes more than a hundred kilometers of the line of contact with the enemy. Not a day goes by that he does not have problems. But not once has Apty Aronovich announced it publicly over the Internet, but only through internal communication with the leadership. I should note that, with rare exceptions, the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff were always accommodating and helpful to Chechen units. And there are always misunderstandings in ordinary civilian life, not to mention the war, where there is always a shortage of ammunition! I do hope my appeal will be heeded by Sergey Kuzugetovich and that an order will be given to the General Staff to go there and sort it out. It is the only correct way out of the situation, in a soldier's way.

Chechen units fought side by side with the Wagnerians in the most difficult areas in Popasna, Severodonetsk, Lisichansk, and other settlements in Donbass.Together, they fulfilled their sacred duty to the motherland without distinction of nationality or faith. The interests of the state and the security of the country must come first. And when the SMO is over, I would like all of us—every fighter, every commander, every Russian patriot—to be the winners. Together.

Yes, if the older brother Prigozhin and the Wagner leave, the General Staff will lose an experienced combat unit, and the younger brother Kadyrov and the Akhmat will take his place in Artemovsk. If the scenario nevertheless plays out that way, our fighters are already ready to move in and occupy the city. It's a matter of hours. But we would like to take the remaining two kilometers of the city, not at the cost of soldiers' lives but as a result of the mutual understanding, support, and determination of the commanders and fighters to carry out the order of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of Russia, Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin.

Another bullshit distraction for all of the very stupidest among the "pro-Russian" internet circle jerk. Lira is a 100% CIA/SBU stooge. He lives in fucking Kharkov. ON THE UKROP NAZI SIDE, UNDER UKROP NAZI CONTROL. And the exact same can be said about him as about where he lives. It is incomprehensible to me that there are literate adults in this world who are too stupid to understand this. WHY do you think this piece of shit still has Twitter, Facebook and you know what? Western Union, Paypal, Moneygram, etc, etc, etc, still work in Kharkov, BUT THEY SURE AF DON'T WORK IN RUSSIA. Lira is a piece of shit, and anyone who takes him seriously is a _stupid_ piece of shit. And if that's you, or you are offended by what I said, please feel free to fuck off.

You know what happens to REAL journalists who post anti-nazi info? Ask Vladen Tatarsky or Daria Dugina, or Graham Phillips or Alina Lipp. Or me.

This summary was posted a week ago. It is probably the most important thing any Russian, or "pro-Russian" will ever read. If you're a Russian, or "pro-Russian" you better read it. TWICE. And try to understand how serious the situation is. Russia CAN losе this war, and if it does, it will simply be the conclusion of what Western nazis started in 1941 - the extermination of most, and enslavement of the rest, of the Russian People. You have been warned.

The full interview where Evgeniy Prigozhin absolutely lambasted Shoigu and the MoD and the Kremlin bureaucracy just came out recently. You can watch it in Russian here. I saw a lot of people talking about it on Twitter and I couldn’t believe what I was reading so I decided to listen to the interview myself, and analyze it line by line to figure out just what was being said exactly. I will share the bullet-points with you here as I listen along:

By the 80s, the Soviet Army was just a social club, ineffective and neutered and not even an organization capable of providing a social lift

Russia didn’t win the Chechen wars, Putin paid Kadyrov’s dad a bribe to end it

There was no such thing as the “Delbaltsevo Cauldron” in Donbass - Poroshenko’s army simply made an orderly retreat intact. It was a patriotic lie told by Russia

Wagner was the main force that saved Assad in Syria and was undermined by the MoD every step of the way

The SMO proved that the Russian army is totally demoralized, unorganized, untrained, undisciplined and unprepared

The MoD routinely lies about realities on the battlefield even about Wagner’s operations

The Russian Army in the north likes to get drunk and the Ukrainians make good money selling them cognac

Wagner launched its operation to stabilize the front when the Russian army was retreating in chaos and disorder following the Ukrainian counterattack

There is no real leadership in the army

Russia has the resources to win, but the leadership keeps the resources away from the people who need it on purpose

Lower level officers are pressured to lie to higher-ups because everyone will get in trouble if they don’t

Bakhmut was a plan created by Wagner and General Surovikin to damage the Ukrainian army

People in the command believed in saving funds and supplies for a later attack, but this decision was eventually reversed

Prigozhin says he knows where the supplies are being kept, there are enough supplies to fight another half-year - MoD Deputy in charge of supplies Aleksei Krivoruchka has to be fired

Prigozhin outlines some simple military math - one hectare requires X amount of shells to be successfully neutralized before a storm. Wagner needs 80,000 shells a day at the minimum

On paper, the Russian Army has soldiers on Wagner’s flanks, but they are not there in reality

Prigozhin believes this is political sabotage directed at Wagner

Wagner is facing 35k Ukrainian soldiers in Bakhmut and up 500 of their soldiers die a day, but are replenished. Every 20 minutes, 10 soldiers are sent in. An unending flood of reinforcements.

Wagner has been cut-off from supplies. They are sitting 4 days in line to get an appointment from the bureaucracy

The "Old Boy's Club" ("KGB") in RF MoD doesn't care about Russian People. All their mistresses live good lives in the West so they do not care about the war. They demand that the officers lie to them and only tolerate nice-sounding lies.

The Russian army has been transformed from the world’s second-best army into one of the worst - Russia cannot even deal with Ukraine

Russia’s defenses won’t hold if supplies are not released to the soldiers

Prigozhin reaffirms that political intrigue is what prevents the release of these supplies

Prigozhin wants to launch a federal investigation into the corrupt officials responsible for this and the blood that they have on their hands

Prigozhin keeps a list of the thousands of Russian deaths caused by the MoD

Bakhmut could have been taken if Shoigu had given them their supplies

Wagner will have to retreat if they don’t get supplies

Time to tell the truth and stop lying to the Russian people

Once the rains end and the ground dries, the attack will come, maybe by the 9th of May
👍435🙏3🔥2👏2🤣2🤔1
(Part 2)

The interviewer asks: “maybe you will use these weapons to storm Moscow?”

Prigozhin compares the hated bureaucrats who live on Rublevka to Jews living in Israel

No real answer about whether or not Wagner will march on Moscow, the question is dismissed as being ridiculous [I think its a fun fantasy]

Prigozhin has a helpful list of instructions in his office on how to configure scopes correctly for potential snipers (Kremlin assassins) who want to shoot him at his office in St. Petersburg written on his wall with a helpful hint to adjust for a potential dip in the path of the bullet caused by the long distance of a potential shot taken from across the Neva river

Wagner’s pressure is all that slows down the Ukrainian counterattack by diverting attention

Wagner’s intelligence says that they have spies, satellites, the whole works and according to their information, the Ukrainian threat is very real and can reach the Russia-proper border with the forces that they have

Wagner takes the opinions and analyses of their soldiers seriously, the Russian Military, in contrast, treats its soldiers like trash

They repeat a lot of points about the need for supplies

Ukraine wants to continue the advance further than Donbass and then Poland and NATO

Interviewer: “are you a demoralization agent?”

Prigozhin: the Russian people need to know because they will have to pay in blood for this. The bureaucrats will simply flee to the West. They are the ones afraid of the truth

Prigozhin asks why Russia continues to sell oil to the West through India? Says this is treachery. The elites in Russia are in secret negotiations with the Western elite. [A word-for-word Strelkov talking point].

General Teplinsky is one of the good ones, it’s good news that he is back

More talk about supplies

Wagner won’t march on Moscow (lol)

There is nothing to celebrate this May 9th on Victory Day. Respect for the fallen, but no cause for celebration and pompous ceremonies. Russia hasn’t earned this theatrical display

Conclusions:

The army needs supplies

The bureaucrats need to come to the frontlines

The Ukrainian army will attack and this may very well end in tragedy for Russia

The need for the truth to cut through state propaganda has never been more pressing

I’ll have more to say on this including more speculations about the fate of Wagner. But this article is just straight faithful transcription of the facts. Prigozhin’s words can stand on their own for now.
