according to Girkin-Strelkov [tg: strelkovii post: 5686]

- Prigozhin plans to invade Moscow with a few thousand soldiers.

- The plan involves bypassing major cities and avoiding confrontations with local troops.

- The goal is to create panic and cause top officials to flee in fear, allowing Prigozhin to seize power.

- The plan is risky and relies on the assumption that officials will panic and surrender to Prigozhin.

- The plan has two vulnerabilities: potential conflicts with armed groups en route to Moscow and issues with supplying Prigozhin's troops.

- Prigozhin plans to "dig in" some of his forces in Rostov and attract others who are willing to fight for the Kremlin.

- The success of Prigozhin's plan depends on how many officials are willing to fight and resist him.

If I understand correctly, his gripe is with the ministry of defense. So is his plan to take that over and then go back to war with Ukraine as the head of the ministry so he can call the shots?

yeah, you’re right, that’s initial Prigozhin’s claims. he said they didn’t provide his people with resources and that pro-gov troops even open fire on his.

the interesting thing is before Prigozhin never criticised Putin («царь хороший, бояре плохие»), but now reveals his own political ambitions.

Crazy. Stay safe and thank you for the updates 🫂.
