I would agree Paul, however I don't think Prigozhin's excuse is genuine nor his starvation of ammunition true. I think he's been planning this for at least 2 months and has the resources to bring it to fruition. Once he had effectively taken Bahkmut he pulled his forces out back to Rostov on Don for R&R allegedly. It seems now it was for a different reason.
He also has very good contacts in the GUR which may provide tanks and artillery to him as well as the Spetznaz, something to watch out for going forward.
