Wait, how could we possibly have a good idea TODAY? Aren't they in Rustov, almost 1000 km from Moscow?
They've already taken Voronezh as well, some 500km from Moscow and have been reported to be advancing through the Lipetsk province, 350km south of Moscow.
Without opposition, that’s a day of travel.
@muddybulldog
Yeah if they just pickup Russian soldiers on the way without any trouble, it'll be very fast
@exscape
Putin has already fled Moscow to another province and some top leadership have fled to Turkey. They are moving FAST into Moscow.
I see reports of them arriving at Lipetsk (430km from Moscow) just now, after conquering Voronezj (500km from Moscow) about 6 hours ago.
There are reports of gunfire at half-way between Rostov and Moscow already. But yeah, I don't think they will manage to reach close to Moscow within a day https://nitter.net/igorsushko/status/1672434377425551361#m
Nobody in their way to stop them, Russian's army is in Ukraine. If they continue like this Moscow will be put under siege by tomorrow.
They're already moving fast toward Moscow. They're saying they're in Voronezh already but fog of war means we don't know for sure for a while.
They're taking over Rustov because of a huge military supply there.
