This is all unfolding literally right now. It looks like a military base in Moscow is now on fire. Edit… Also reports of fighting between Wagner and russia's national guard on the Rostov-Moscow highway. Wagner are on the move towards Moscow.

Rostov is 1,000 km from Moscow.

  > Rostov is 1,000 km from Moscow. Yeah, but its 1,000 freeway km, with no substantial existing prepared defenses short of the forces deployed in Moscow as part of the emergency plan that’s been activated, not 1,000 km defended like Bakhmut where every meter takes an eternity and extracts a high price. Its maybe a day or so away, which gives no meaningful time for mobilization and defensive deployments that would slow down ang advance. Prigozhin may have bit off more than he can chew unless there are immediate mass defections to his side (or at least mass refusals to engage against Wagner), but there’s unlikely to be anything meaningful stopping him from reaching Moscow with whatever forces he decides to send.

Prigozhin claims Wagner shot down a helicopter (in Rostov?), but again theres no evidence yet.

  What evidence would you accept? I’ve seen a video that appears to support the idea that a helicopter was at least fired at.

    Photographic confirmation of the debris on the ground along with verification of the location. OSINT community has been doing a stellar job with visual confirmation of Russian losses.

      That seems pretty unreasonable given it happened less than 24 hours ago, but here’s a video of some smouldering debris. https://t.me/pilotblog/4885 https://t.me/pilotblog/4885
