Kremlin's Victory Claims Dismissed as 'Science Fiction' by Wagner Boss

Yevgeny Prigozhin, the leader of the Russian mercenary company Wagner, dismissed the Kremlin's claims of inflicting heavy losses on Ukrainian troops in Donetsk as "wild and absurd science fiction." He said that to kill 1,500 soldiers, Russia would have to advance 93 miles every day. Prigozhin's criticism of the Kremlin further intensifies the already existing animosity between the mercenary boss and Moscow's top military leaders.
