I think this goes without saying but Wagner is not your ally even if they want to topple Putin/MoD. The best case scenario is they start killing each other, it goes completely out of hand and Ukrainians take back what's theirs as quickly as possible.
I think a Russian military led by Prigozhin is going to lead to a much bloodier affair in Ukr. Hopefully in-fighting will be chaotic and bloody allowing Ukr to take initiative. #ukraine#russia#wagner#prigozhin#putin
Please, read this.
Wagner and Prigozhin are not anti-war. They are rebelling against Russian military leadership to take over - to kill Ukrainians more efficiently Shoigu does.
They are not saying the war is pointless. They just want more power to kill Ukrainians.
That’s it.
If there are Russian military and security vehicles starting to “lager” (I.e. military equipment preparing for action) in Red Square at 0330 hrs, we in the military call that an “indicator” that things aren’t going well in the Kremlin.
WHERE YOU GOING?! YOU SCARED?!
The jet of the Belarus Dictator Lukashenko 🇧🇾 family took off from Belarus and is now in the sky over Turkey 🇹🇷.
Upon entering Russian airspace, the aircraft turned off the transponders and turned them on only over Kalmykia, when exiting Russia 🇷🇺.
Wagner head Prigozhin has popped up in Rostov, with both Colonel General Yunus-Bek, Deputy Minister of Defense, and Lt. Gen. Vladimir Alekseyev, deputy chief of Russian military intelligence.
@wilwil113@wartranslated@lookner I think this is far too complex to be a deception plan. If it is it seems fairly well resourced but also risks a lot of confusion amongst a volatile public for military gain… something the Kremlin normally shields public from
@kanapolotos@GlobalMacroZen@Tendar@BaldingsWorld I know bro but I’m currently on the same Northing of St Petersburg only a few 100km West and I looked out the window. It’s still dark (darker than the video) between 1100 and 0300 roughly. This could be from hours ago maybe, but not now.
🚨 Special Operations Forces (SSO) commanded by Major General Valery Flustikov have taken over control of the Ministry of Defence headquarters on Frunzenskaya in Moscow. Right now, there's no way of knowing whose side he is really on: Shoigu or Prigozhin. Probably "wait & see."
