Prigozhin has made no such public announcement.

#3 In an interview with War Gonzo, Priggy says in response to the lack of artillery shells (he's been getting the lion's share), "We'll have to take out the units. Get him out of this area."

Sounds like a threat and he's sending a letter to the big boss man. As of today, no extra helping of shells.

The saga continues. Prigozhin threatened Shoigu to retreat from Bakhmut if they were not given ammunition. Which will lead to a catastrophic problem for Russia.
