Something very weird appears to be going on..........
Is Prigozhin attempting a coup?

He says its not a coup, but a 'Justice March'.

Edit to add, muddling through, it appears Wagner troops were subject to a barrage of missiles fired from the rear. The contention is that Russian soldiers intentionally tried to obliterate a a Wagner camp.
Fog of war and all that, but there is some other info out there, I'm trying to piece this together credibly.
If Prigozhin is serious (he's prone to nonsensical bluster) and his troops attack Russian positions...............
CNN is reporting that Russian TV stations are having regular programming interrupted for "special announcements" that support Putin and claim statements from Prigozhin "do not correspond to reality."
At a minimum this is a flag that Putin is taking this as a legitimate threat.
As he well should, considering that he has committed 98% of Russia's standing army to Ukraine, leaving the Motherland virtually undefended.CNN is reporting that Russian TV stations are having regular programming interrupted for "special announcements" that support Putin and claim statements from Prigozhin "do not correspond to reality."

Entertaining. Criminals always turn on each other. Didn't think Wagner had enough to do this. So I'm curious what will happen now.

Oops.
I will dance with utter glee if this evolves into a full 1917 style state of anarchy and Russia completely collapses!
Don't really care if they do or not; having them chew each other up can only be an opportunity for Ukraine.
