Russian mercenary leader releases video of captured officer, accuses military of sabotage amid internal disputes

Yevgeny Prigozhin, leader of the Wagner mercenary group, published a video of a captured Russian lieutenant colonel admitting to attacking Wagner fighters while intoxicated.
Prigozhin accused Russia's military of depriving his forces of ammunition and mining roads used by his fighters.
There is an ongoing public dispute between Prigozhin and Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, as well as tensions between Prigozhin and Russia's military leadership.
The captured officer, Lt. Col. Roman Venevitin, admitted to firing on a Wagner vehicle and disarming their forces while drunk and motivated by personal animosity.
Wagner mercenaries and regular Russian forces have been increasingly at odds in Ukraine, with Prigozhin accusing top military officials of undermining Wagner's efforts in the war.
