   I see multiple people talking about civil war in #Russia. From what I can see, the head of #Wagner, a notorious braggart and complainer said some things he should not have said, but I have seen nothing to suggest actual fratricidal fighting.

      Okay, now I've seen unconfirmed reports that PMC Wagner peacefully took control of regional military headquarters in Rostov-na-Donu and military facilities in Voronezh. They're still 500km/300mi away from Moscow, and there's no assurance that the leaders of the Ministry of Defense would be there anyway.
      
      I just think that to be seen as crossing Putin means Prigozhin's lifespan just shortened considerably, unless this is a maneuver meant to trick Ukraine into over-committing in a battle somewhere.
