An unverified video posted on the “Razgruzka Wagner” (Wagner’s Combat Vest) Telegram channel showed a scene in a forest where small fires were burning and trees appeared to have been broken by force.

It carried the caption: “A missile attack was launched on the camps of PMC Wagner. Many victims. According to eyewitnesses, the strike was delivered from the rear, that is, it was delivered by the military of the Russian Ministry of Defence.”

Prigozhin vowed to avenge the incident: “There are 25,000 of us and we are going to figure out why chaos is happening in the country.”

But he also added: “This is not a military coup.”

    I wouldn’t really compare spez with either Musk or Prigozhin, but I understand your opinion. He could be just mad or he’s forcing his hand because he feels he can have popular support … I guess we’ll see in a few days.

      Spez has directly praised Musk’s moves at Twitter and cited them as inspiration.

      Sure, they are all on different levels, but all of them are proof that you don’t have to be mentally stable to be in power and that you don’t need to understand the link between actions and results either.
