Yevgeny Prigozhin on passenger list of plane in fatal crash, says Russia
Officials say Wagner chief behind June mutiny was on jet that crashed in Tver region killing all 10 onboard
Are they sure he didn’t fall out the airplane window?

Had anyone actually seen him since the mutiny? Or is this just Russian way to tie up loose ends...
12There was a video of him just yesterday talking about how Wagner is helping to "free" Africa - not sure when it was recorded, right enough.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Yevgeny Prigozhin, the Wagner paramilitary chief who launched an armed mutiny in June, was on a private jet that crashed in the Tver region near Moscow, killing all 10 onboard, Russian officials have said.
Rosaviatsia, the Russian aviation authority, said Prigozhin was one of the passengers listed in the manifest as being onboard the Embraer business jet that crashed on Wednesday evening.
The cause of the crash was not immediately clear, but Prigozhin’s longstanding feud with the military and the armed uprising he led in June would give the Russian state ample motive for revenge.
Prigozhin, an ally of Vladimir Putin’s who amassed a fortune from state contracts, later went on to establish troll factories and a paramilitary army that became an important extension of Russian power abroad.
But a longstanding conflict with the top brass of the defence ministry only grew worse in Ukraine, where he feuded over ammunition and strategy, claiming his irregular fighters were being sacrificed to protect regular Russian troops.
Where’s the fucking ammo?” he screamed in one social media post, calling out defence minister Sergei Shoigu and chief of the general Staff Valery Gerasimov while lobbying for more shells to be delivered to his troops fighting near Bakhmut.

4We all knew his days were numbered after his failed coup attempt.
3Yeah, I can't believe that he was okay with just promises from Putin to not harm him.
"If you come at the king, you bet not miss."
With Putin you really want to get the job done. Even hiding is a limited option given how Russia killed people that fled into the UK and Germany.
