Wagner’s prediction since the beginning of the Ukrainian army’s counter-offensive against Russia

According to Fars International News Agency, Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the Wagner military group attached to the Russian army, announced in an interview on Saturday that the Ukrainian army is preparing to start its counter-attacks against Russia and will probably start its attacks by May 15. .

According to the TASS news agency, Prigozhin noted that the last heavy rain will be on May 2, after which the weather will improve and the wind will dry the ground and facilitate the movement of tanks and armored personnel carriers.

He further emphasized that Ukraine’s counterattacks should have started by now. Weather conditions and probably internal problems have delayed it.

On Friday, Ukrainian Defense Minister Alexei Rezhnikov confirmed that the country’s military is generally ready to launch a counterattack against Russia.

In a press conference, in response to a question about a possible counter-attack in the areas under Russian control, he said: In general, we are ready with a high percentage and everything depends on the Joint Staff (Army).

However, he continued to explain that the Ukrainian forces have not yet completed all the courses related to the correct use of weapons donated by the West to this country. Rezhnikov emphasized that the announcement equipment has been partially prepared and delivered, but the training program for the hardware of military items has not yet been fully completed.

The head of the Wagner Group further emphasized that 100% counterattacks in Ukraine will begin by mid-May.

For months, Ukrainian and Western sources have speculated about the beginning of a series of counter-attacks by Ukrainian forces against Russia in the spring. Earlier, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia emphasized that such open speculations in Western countries about expectations for a counterattack against Russia confirm the direct involvement of Western countries in the Ukraine war.

On Tuesday last week, the New York Times newspaper reported that the Ukrainian forces are planning to launch attacks in the southern regions of the country, which have fallen into the hands of Russia, quoting confidential documents of the US Department of Defense that have recently been released on the Internet.
