Belgorod! Why Wagner PVC launched a war against the Russian army

The founder of the Wagner PEC Yevhen Prigogin declared a rifle battle against units of the Russian army. According to the results of the battle, a Russian senior officer was taken into captivity, who told interesting details. In the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the information was not yet noticed. The focus understood why the Russian forces began to struggle with each other and where to expect a new appearance of "Wagnerists".

On Monday, June 5, a video of the commander of the 72th Rifle Brigade of the Armed Forces of Russia, Lieutenant Colonel Roman Venevitin, as well as a report on the battle between the Wagner PEC and a regular army of the Russian Federation appeared on the network. The source of information was the press service of the head of the Wagner PEC Yevgeny Prigogine.

According to published information, during the release of mercenaries, their journey in the rear was replaced by a large number of explosives. At the time of demining, fighters opened fire from small arms. The incident itself happened on May 17, but it was made public only now. During the interrogation, Venevitin explained that he ordered the battle because of his personal dislike. "The investigation is underway. Many facts are not public. However, I can publish a primary report," Prigogine said.

Military expert Dmitry Snegirev explains the focus that a shootout with a 72 -rifle brigade of the Russian Federation and captivity of Lieutenant Colonel is a personal war of Prigogine to destroy the army of "dead souls" in corruption in the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. The conflict is controlled, it is not in vain that the shootout appeared only now.

"Let me remind you that this is a brigade, which according to Prigogine, threw the flanks under Bakhmut and fled from the battlefield. The formation of this brigade became known in August 2022, then in Orenburg the governor stated that 60 locals joined 72 motorized rifles. . For understanding-the numerical composition of the brigade is 4,500 people.

Subsequently, the assumption of the Brigade of "Dead Souls" was confirmed by Igor Strelkov (Girkin), noting that it consists of bare The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation is a controlled process of information invasion of Sergei Shoigu. At first, these were statements about corruption, then about the real estate of Shoig. .

Snegirev notes that the information that the 72 motorized rifle brigade actually exists only on paper, helped with the planning and fighting in the Bakhmut direction. It is noteworthy that the "army of dead souls" is an old well -known practice in the Russian Federation. Back in 2017, the General Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine reported that there is a considerable incompleteness in the Russian units in the Donbass.

For example, in the so -called 7th Separate Rifle Brigade, the 2nd Army Corps lacked more than 20% of personnel. Experts explain that this is done to obtain more money. The confrontation between Prigogin and the leadership of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, including Minister Sergei Shoig and the Chief of Staff Valery Gerasimov, has long been public and is only gaining momentum.

According to military expert Oleg Zhdanov, the conflict of Prigogine has already reached the criminal level. This is called the assassination attempt - one side opens the fire on the defeat when the other exchanges the territory. At the same time, this is not due to a mistake, but quite consciously by order. "Today, they have a shootout, and tomorrow they can go to a real fight against each other," he says.

Experts interviewed by the publication explain this search for the fault of the Russian army. On June 1, 2023, Prigogine stated that the Wagner units finally left Bakhmut. Mercenaries should take place in the rear lobs and wait for a new order. At the same time, Prigogine stated that they were ready to go to the Belgorod region, because, according to him, the army of Russia under the leadership of the Ministry of Defense was not able to stop "arbitrariness and seizure of territories".

Recall that the Chechen units of Ramzana Kadyrov have in the positions of "Wagnerivtsi". Because of this, the environment of Chechnya criticized the words and actions of Prigogine. Kadyrov's relative, State Duma MP Adam Delimhanov, Head of Chechen Parliament, Magomed Daudov and commander of the special forces "Akhmat" Apty Alaudinov, spoke criticism. The reason was the words of Prigogine that the Chechens are not going to liberate the whole Donetsk region.

He was even offered to choose a place to meet and resolve this issue face-to-face. Focus has already said that the Kadyrian fighters are not purely military formation and are not capable of performing assault and general military operations. Their task is police functions in captured territories. Where the main forces of Wagner PEC, which participated in the storming of Bakhmut, are currently unknown.

According to the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Alexei Danilov, mercenaries will be overgraded and continue to fight against Ukraine. "Yes, it happens. But it does not mean that they will stop fighting with us. They are going to focus more on other fronts . . . They are overgraded at the other three locations," Danilov said in an interview with the Air Force. According to Dmitry Snegirev, mercenaries can appear in three places-in border with Ukraine, Moscow and St.

Petersburg and Africa. These movements are dictated by the current situation, not the will of choice. "They are taken to the territory of the Russian Federation to convey the function of struggle and suppression of opposition sentiment, a kind of gendarme corps. Against this background, they already had a conflict with Kadyrov. , recruiting and organizational issues.

The defeat of the Russian army, which is already being prepared by Russian propagandists on the air, is a factor that is strongly demotivated, so they will work with society. Remember, all the revolutions began in "sleepy" Moscow and Peter, "he says. For his part, Oleg Zhdanov, on the contrary, states that the Russian leadership will in every way prevent the emergence of "Wagnerists" in the country.

"It would be the best option for Prigogine to appear in the Russian Federation, but it may not happen. The Russian leadership understands that the Prigogine army in its territory will be uncontrollable and armed. In Ukraine, they can still be controlled,"-says he. Zhdanov, with reference to its own sources, said that the PVC units were being brought to the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine. In particular, they are fixed on the Azov coast. New places near Berdyansk and Mariupol are known.
