Is Russia’s invasion of Ukraine failing? Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of Russian private military contractor Wagner, says it is. Prigozhin claimed his forces have started pulling out of Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine. Retired Brig. Gen. Peter Zwack says Prigozhin’s comments will “create problems” for Russia. And retired Lt. Gen.
