Wagner mercenary boss rages at lack of ammo in grisly video, vows to pull out of Bakhmut

The founder of Russia’s Wagner mercenary group announced Friday that his private army, which has been spearheading the bloody fight to capture Bakhmut, will pull out of the Ukrainian city next week — just hours after he released a grisly video showing what he claimed were corpses of his fighters as he raged about a lack of ammunition.

Yevgeny Prigozhin, a catering mogul and close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, could be heard in the gruesome footage hurling a string of profanities directed at Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov.
