The head of Russia’s Wagner mercenary group offered in late January to reveal Russian military positions to Kyiv in exchange for a Ukrainian withdrawal around Bakhmut, The Washington Post reports, citing leaked Pentagon documents.
The US newspaper reported late on Sunday that Yevgeny Prigozhin, whose fighters have spearheaded the battle for the eastern Ukrainian city, made the offer via his secret communications with Ukrainian intelligence, which he has kept throughout the war.
