Via Dmitri (@wartranslated):

  • Prigozhin says again that Rusian lines in Zaporizhzhia and Kherson are falling, and it is only a matter of time until moves similar to Kherson and Kharkiv regroupings take place. Local Russian commanders are forced to provide false reports on their positions so as to not antagonise the high command.

The latter part in particular seems to be a systemic problem with the RU command structure — false reports are passed up the chain, leaving general staff out of touch with realities on the ground and unable to give orders that will have the desired result.

Or, as Prigozhin so eloquently puts it, "the General Staff head, after a glass of vodka, screams like a woman, like a pig, demanding to return the positions!"
