Prigozhin has announced that his forces are marching on Moscow, that civilians should stay inside, and that MoD troops should surrender to Wagner.

If he's serious, Russia is now in a state of civil war.

🚨The FSB has opened a criminal case against Prigozhin.

He is charged with calling for armed rebellion.

This is not theater. It's a real power struggle inside Russia. 🚨

The fact that Wagner relies on the MoD for logistics doesn't mean Wagner can't carry out a coup.

It means that a coup requires help from the pro-Wagner faction inside the MoD.

In latest audio message, Prigozhin claims that the majority of the Russian military supports Wagner against Shoigu.

He says soldiers are sending him messages of support, saying they'll finally receive the ammunition they need.

New messages from Wagner: "It has begun."

"Neither the FSB nor [General] Surovikin can stop what has begun."

"All the generals who, with trembling hands turn to the musicians [Wagner] with calls to stop, have actually already signed their sentences.

There will definitely be a tribunal."

Wagner is also saying that Surovikin will stand trial for the surrender of Kherson.

It's clear he is not part of the attempted coup.

That is bad for Priogzhin, as Surovikin seemed to be his biggest ally in the MoD.

The FSB and Surovikin have both issued statements calling on Wagner forces to take Prigozhin into custody.

So has the Deputy Head of the GRU.

They are desperately trying to stop the crisis from turning into a civil war.

Wagner claims Prigozhin has made an offer to the National Guard, "which it's better not to refuse."

That fulfillment of "criminal orders" and interfering with the "campaign of justice" by Wagner will end badly for those who make the wrong choice.

(Yes, it's a coup attempt.)

Wagner: "Once General Shoigu is arrested, then the war [in Ukraine] really starts."

Russia's Ministry of Defense claims that Ukrainian forces are taking advantage of the chaos caused by Prigozhin.

It says they've begun an offensive around Bakhmut, which Russian aerospace forces are attempting to push back.

BREAKING: New audio from Prigozhin says Wagner is entering Rostov.

Calls on Russian soldiers to lay down their arms to Wagner.

Claims that Wagner were attacked first, repeats his call for "justice" against Shoigu.
