It's good to see some posters here come to the realization that yes, sometimes things are real in russia and not a "psyops" or "posturing for western audiences". This poo poo is real and it's happening right now.

My personal, wholly unqualified assessment is that it's a mix: Prigozhin really is going for it, but it remains to be seen what if any of Wagner will actually follow him. The Telegram accounts are likely run by him personally or by a very loyal core of employees. Maybe he really does have a massive convoy entering Rostov, so far I don't think we've seen any concrete evidence of that

Probably a good summary of the situation:

I agree. I saw earlier the suggestion that this probably isn't Putin's 1917, but if things go badly, it could be his 1905.

EDIT: over now. No Putin address, they just did a quick update denying anything about Prigozhin claims and stated that there is an arrest warrant for Prigozhin.

I think it would be an ok summary in a normal situation, but the main Russian army isn't in Moscow, it's not being run in a normal matter and Putin isn't on TV saying this is a silly thing to do.

Assuming Wagner troops follow Prigozin's orders, they could very well be the superior force here.

Friday night to start this also sounds very planned from Wagner. The perfect time when most government officials are home, sleeping, or drunk and getting ready for the weekend. Everyone will be hard to reach to organize anything. Not to mention during summer everyone heads to dacha before the weekend so lots of govt officials from Moscow could already be in the middle of nowhere hours away.

You know, they might have better understanding of the situation, in addition of thousands of eyes in the sky and on the front. Besides its not about if it is really happening, it about do the Russian troops in the front think that it is happening.
