The Wagner mercenary group is rebelling against Putin and not really meeting much resistance as they travel towards Moscow, even picking up new soldiers along the way. As it started on Friday night, a lot of Russian soldiers were too drunk to be useful. Putin has fled Moscow.
tl;dr Russia hired Wagner mercenaries, Wagner mercs felt threatened in some way (not clear at the moment, various theories), turned around and are now headed to Moscow and Moscow is shitting bricks. There is a lot of confusion and confabulation at the moment.
ukraine community over at sopuli is great if you sort by new, just trying to get more traction there in the form of people commenting. Posts for info, comments for fun.
Check the deep state map once a day to get info on the front lines. This is the map that most of the YouTubers reference so you get the info without all the bs. They also have geotagged videos https://deepstatemap.live
I have subscribed to the news and worldnews magazines in kbin.social, lemmy.world, Lemmy.ml and Beehaw, along with the Ukraine one in sopuli.xyz. I am getting all the latest updates right here in my feed. I also follow the #Russia hashtag on Mastodon, and has also added it to my favourite hashtags tab on Tusky (Mastodon app). I am getting faster updates than what I used to get on Twitter and Reddit.
