Wagner Group has trekked from Rostov, all the way to Voronezh, and taken control of the military facilities there.
For context, Voronezh is halfway between Rostov and Moscow, and this was accomplished in under a day.

This would be huge, but also very worrying. Russia can fuck out of Ukraine, but it’s not gonna get anymore stable or peaceful when Prigozin of all people takes over the government
Let’s hope they just cripple each other and don’t get full grasp on the situation 🤞
He won’t. Even if he manages to depose Putin, he’s far from being in control of Russia. There will be a power struggle that might devolve into full blown civil war. Which is worrying in its own right, of course.
Idk much about Wagner group, but I thought they were hired mercenaries? Why would a mercenary leader want to take over government? If anything I’d think they’d install their own puppets for government - which is probably just as bad if not worse.
Russia has been a weird wealth making machine since ussr fell. This guy wants to rob the Russian people too while pretending he’s running a government.
