Wagner Group has been spearheading the attack on Ukraine’s all-too-important city of Bakhmut since May, and it has been the site of some of the greatest loss of life since the war began. Prigozhin first began recruiting convicted criminals back in September when it became apparent that Russia was running severely low on soldiers. Back in November of 2022, Andrii Yermak, Ukraine’s Head of the Office of the President, revealed that many of the criminals recruited out of Russia’s prison system into Wagner were being sent into battle without proper protection and were being used as expendable soldiers. Do you agree with Prigozhin’s opinion ?
