In a new video that appeared on social networks, you can see how artillery of the Ukrainian troops repeatedly hit a group of Russian soldiers who were desperately trying to hide in the buildings of the war-torn city.

The almost two-minute video footage shows how the Russian military is being “run away” by the coordinated fire of Ukrainian mortar drones, artillery and portable rocket launchers.

The editors of the video below of the dead Russian soldiers seem to suggest that the final blow was fatal to a group of surviving Russian soldiers hiding in the last building. However, this is not entirely clear, as the footage is cut immediately after the final explosion.

For example, around 01:00 in the recording, it can be seen that most of the Moscow military survived, it seems, the same powerful blow.

The video material was shot in the eastern city of Bakhmut, Donetsk region, which Wagner’s mercenaries have been trying to capture since the beginning of August last year.

Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of the mercenaries of the Wagner PMC, released a shocking photo of the bodies of dozens of his soldiers who were killed on Wednesday, saying that they had all lost their lives in just one day of fighting.

Putin’s “chef” released the photo a day after suggesting that Moscow’s military command was guilty of treason, accusing it of refusing to supply Wagner’s mercenaries with the ammunition they needed.

On Thursday, Prigozhin claimed “victory” in a standoff with Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Russia’s Chief of General Staff Valery Gerasimov, saying the munitions documents had been signed, but so far it was “only on paper.”
