"Is it a goyda yet?" Russia discusses Prigozhin's revolt instead of sports news

The situation in Rostov, where mercenaries of the Wagner PMC surrounded the headquarters of the Southern Military District, as well as a number of buildings, including the Interior Ministry, the Federal Security Service and the city administration, became the number one topic of Internet discussion. Russian fans under the news about sports instead of transfers and records are discussing the riot of PMC owner Yevgeny Prigozhin.

The users ironically twist the propaganda narrative that "everything is under control".

Users also joke about the news of Brazilian footballer Wagner Love's move, using the similarity of his name to that of the PMC.

As OBOZREVATEL reported, authorities in Russia have announced a "Fortress" plan, while a large number of military equipment has been spotted in Rostov, Voronezh and Smolensk regions, and shootings have started in the streets. Russian President Vladimir Putin made an urgent appeal to Russians and declared "treason".
