Care to explain how going on a 200km + detour in the wrong direction with heavy infantry (and taking control of the base) makes any sense for a mercenary army supposedly very shorthanded (with 5K troops over multiple areas) and rolling towards Moscow if it was solely for a sightseeing tour? Surely there are closer military bases that don't have nukes (Kursk, Belgorod) if nukes were not the objective?
Also tactical nuclear warheads are small in size, some small enough to fit on an office table.
It's speculation yes as we do not know the objective, but Wagner did indeed send a significant enough number of troops towards a destination 200km away in the middle of a mutiny / coup towards what should be a well defended base and took control of it. If you can provide a logical explanation on how that would make sense, go right ahead.
Euromaidenpress has also reported on it. Pravda has also corroborated this was planned for longer than a few days.

A number of western media sources including CNN have used gulagu.net as a reliable source in the past. Igor Shusko is only parroting this source, not the source itself.

Firstly, the only source suggesting that Prighozhin or Wagner went there was Visograd quoting Russia Freedom Legion who were nowhere near there and Wagner would likely despise. Prighozhin was going to bring his forces there to kill them. How the hell does "Russia Freedom Legion" know where Wagner went, and why are they the only ones who know it?
Secondly, it appears that trusting Google to find a nuclear arsenal is a bad idea as that is not the actual location of Voronezh-45. Stop giving these people attention.
This war is being fought in the age of social media and there's a lot of crap out there. Ask yourself this: if this was a real concern, why is there not a single Russian expert, Ukraine expert, nuclear expert, anyone else, concerned? If there could be nuclear warheads in the possession of a madman, but no one is concerned? Why are they all saying this is stupid?
Edit: so I looked into the sourcing of that Euromaiden article. It sources Gulag.net, which sources a fellow named Vladimir Osechkin who just happens to be Igor Shusko's buddy as he is the source for basically all of Igor's nonsense. This whole idea that this was planned 8 months ago was not discovered 8 months ago, it was discovered..... yesterday. Vladimir Osechkin is completely full of poop. Seriously, check your sources
