Dmitri of @wartranslated has proven a reliable translator, and Prigozhin — for all that he’s a war criminal who we may hope will one day decorate The Hague — has often proven to be more reliably in touch with tactical realities than his counterparts in the VSRF command structure or Russian media.
A necessary caveat here is that underlying Prigozhin’s communications is his own political game, IE discrediting the VSRF & Shoigu et al to gain more influence himself, but that doesn’t mean he’s incorrect in his assessment here.
Jesus. 40min later and this is looking a lot more concrete than it did when I posted this. Prigozhin is now potentially engaged in armed mutiny and his fighters are calling their loved ones to say goodbye and telling them “watch the news”.
