  1. 15:50 The rumor is that Wagner was founded by lieutenant colonel Dmitry Utkin, though things like these are hard to verify. Wagner is hardly the only PMC in Russia. There are many others, like defense minister Shoigu's PMC called Patriot, but for some reason Wagner has grown much bigger than any of the others.

  2.  @mikelee7318  Prigozhin claims that he's going to withdraw Wagner because they haven't been supplied with enough ammunition.

  3.  @ericp1139  I only mentioned it because it's rather difficult to square with the claim by OP (Mike Lee) that this is a normal rotation decided by the Russian MoD due to the assaults on Bakhmut having done their job.

  4. I think it's "Constellis" since 2014. Blackwater is also different in that it wasn't sent to regular frontline combat like Wagner. They were only supposed to do things like act as bodyguards. These could involve combat but usually only when attacked.
