Has Putin fled Moscow?

Russian media: Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov has just left Russia for Turkey.

Also, supposedly Medvedev has left Moscow.

Supposedly, Putin has left, and his plane has turned off transponders.

So what does Ukraine do right now? Sit on their hands to see what happens? Or another counter offensive?

If I were the Ukranians, I'd be pushing.

Absolutely. Just stay away from the Wagner troops. Doesn't sound like they are in Ukraine anymore anyway.

Like I said, if I were the Ukrainians, I'd push. Hard. Psy-Ops on the Russian troops followed by kicking the crap out of any who don't surrender or can be seen leaving...

Good thread on the history and dynamics.

Takeaway:

Prigozhin has limited resources he needs to act quick and to take over Moscow within a short period, otherwise he is doomed. At the same time people are not eager to defend Putin and no that many want to die for him fighting Wagner.

Putin is still not done and has enough power to fight back and to win it over. However in a broad light of things he lost - there is a coup in his country, the army lost confidence in him and in this war, Ukraine is advancing and his chair is shaking. All in all, he is very vulnerable now and his future seems grim 23/
