Title: Wagner Chief Offers to Reveal Russian Troop Locations in Ukraine

The "Washington Post" reported on Sunday, citing leaked U.S. intelligence documents, that "Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the Wagner private military group, offered to disclose the locations of Russian troops to the Ukrainian government in exchange for the withdrawal of its soldiers from the area." The newspaper noted that "Ukraine rejected the offer." Wagner troops are at the forefront of a bloody Russian assault aiming to seize the Ukrainian city of Bakhmut. A White House spokesperson declined to comment on the report, which was based on secret U.S. documents leaked to the group chat platform "Discord." Prigozhin, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, publicly threatened to withdraw his forces from the area surrounding Bakhmut, where they lead the Russian offensive, unless they receive the ammunition they urgently need.
