Kadyrov's Chechens are being pulled out of Donbas to fortify Rostov.

Whose side is Kadyrov on? Or is he his own side?

[–] miket@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago

They're on their own side, they're mercs and loyal to money, just like Wagner. Right now, they're taking Putin's money.

However, as soon as Putin's down or out of money, they'll switch sides easily.

Keep in mind that Chechens were at some point at war with Putin as well and Putin won that one. Kadyrov's an ally of Putin at this point.

Civilian livestreaming roadblocks (allegedly)

I am going to be glued to Kbin all day for this. This won't stop the Ukrainian invasion though, will it? It sounded like things will be continuing as they have but under a different leader. There's no real "benefit" to Ukraine in this, is there?

Well, it appears that some of the baddies will be killing off each other, saving Ukraine the trouble.

Kadyrov is pulling his Chechens out of Ukraine and chasing after Wagner.

Ukraine's intelligence had foreseen this coup 3 months ago. Budanov's "shh" makess a lot more sense now.

I usually read Tim Mak's reporting on Ukraine, and he has his article out about it here: https://open.substack.com/pub/counteroffensive/p/newsflash-russia-wracked-by-rebellion

It lays out the general events well enough, I don't know if he'll keep updating that page specifically. But it was good as an intro to what's happening.

Kadyrov's Akhmat units are heading to Rostov to supposedly counter Wagner's advance. As of this moment the head of the column is 40km away from Rostov. Worth remembering that just a few weeks ago Kadyrov's Chechen troops were tipped to take over from Wagner in Ukraine. https://www.criticalthreats.org/analysis/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-may-31-2023
