I can't see how Wagner has any heavy weapons near Moscow it would take weeks to move that equipment by rail and that is easy to stop with one bomb.
Modern wars are won and lost with logistics. A mercenary force has none. They depend on the russian army to supply them.
Reportedly Russian Military and National Guard units on the road to Moscow have been outright defecting. Which would explain where they’d get heavy weapons.
Not to mention it also comes down to experience. Wagner spent months on the frontlines. The Russian Cops on the other hand. Have been dealing with typical police work and the occasional protest/riot. Not exactly equivalent to frontline combat experience.
Granted this is also supposing it’s not some elaborate fake plan/stunt on the part of one faction or another.
All looks fake and gay to me. You can't move a force like that. It's too easy to stop, even token resistance would stop them for days. Looks like a made up excuse to shut things down and take out the deepstate in Russia.
Which is funny considering nothing at all has shut down and Prigozhin has already told his forces to stand down, as of a couple hours ago, after talking with Lukashenko and Putin.
So we already know the "take out the deep state in Russia" narrative to be copium bullshit.
Don't be silly,we have no idea of who said what and when in Russia. Putin just needs to know for sure who to take out.
He doesn't need an army to do it. He was in the KGB he knows how to dissapear his enemys.
