TL;DR Summary

The President of Belarus flew over Russian airspace with his plane's transponder turned off until he had cleared it. Putin is facing a coup led by the boss of the Wagner mercenary group, Yevgeny Prigozhin. Prigozhin has demanded that unless the main military commanders come to him, he will march on Moscow. While he may not succeed, this putsch makes public opposition more thinkable. As expected, the coup is over, but they moved closer than expected without serious confrontation along the way, making one wonder if there's more going on here than meets the eye.
