Ukrainian intelligence has information that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin has urgently left Moscow for his residence in Valdai, while Putin’s press secretary has denied this.
That might be accurate and it would make sense why they’re so defenseless, if that’s the case. But if that’s the case, then it was extremely idiotic to attack Wagner. But then, the people at the Russian MOD might just be that stupid as to attack their mercenaries that were providing their only internal defenses. Unless Prigozhin is just making up the attack like the MOD claims.
Regardless, it doesn’t really matter why Wagner turned around and is fighting Russia now. What matters is that they are and that it’s bad news bears for Russia.
