alyaza [they/she]MEGATHREAD: whatever the hell is going on in Russia right now
nob0dyIf Moscow stations start playing this, it's a probable sign that the Coup is legitimate and the transition has started. Bonkers to think think that in our lifetime we'd see the collapse of a nuclear power. Even if Putin and his government survive this Coup, I don't think he'll have any political capital left to lead. By 8:00pm EDT, we'll have a pretty good idea who's left standing.

exscapeWait, how could we possibly have a good idea TODAY? Aren't they in Rustov, almost 1000 km from Moscow?
MuddybulldogWithout opposition, that’s a day of travel.
LollerCorleoneThere are reports of gunfire at half-way between Rostov and Moscow already. But yeah, I don't think they will manage to reach close to Moscow within a day https://nitter.net/igorsushko/status/1672434377425551361#m
SpaceCadet2000They've already taken Voronezh as well, some 500km from Moscow and have been reported to be advancing through the Lipetsk province, 350km south of Moscow.
exohumanPutin has already fled Moscow to another province and some top leadership have fled to Turkey. They are moving FAST into Moscow.
They're already moving fast toward Moscow. They're saying they're in Voronezh already but fog of war means we don't know for sure for a while.
They're taking over Rustov because of a huge military supply there.
Nobody in their way to stop them, Russian's army is in Ukraine. If they continue like this Moscow will be put under siege by tomorrow.
