I don't want to link the Twitter thread this is quoted from, as it includes images from Russian media that I don't want to share, but this is from a western security expert who lives in Kyiv and I've found to be a fairly reliable source and not prone to getting over-excited. He'd spent an hour or so saying "hold on, we're not certain he was on board" up until this.
Pretty much every source in Russia, pro-Wagner, anti-Wagner, Russian state, Russian 'opposition', and the Wagner 'Council Of Commanders' is now confirming that Yevgeny Prigozhin and Dmitry Utkin are both dead.
I think I'm getting confused now. This doesn't seem to be going quite the same as the usual RIPs. (That would be Rest In Pieces in this case presumably?)
I think him and the plane agreed to this crash and it was therefore consensual and all charges should be dropped and he should continue his career as a number 9.
When he waged war on Putin you wondered how it would go if he didn't see it through
For him to turn back and then take the "protection" offered to him was so obviously foolhardy! I find it odd that someone so successful and previously so careful didn't see this coming when literally the rest of the world knew it was only a matter of time.
Yet Putin will sit there and deny all knowledge...and get away with it,
The Kremiln's official coroner's report stated clearly that the deaths were caused by a plane accident which was due to an unavoidable, fatal combination of aircraft design defects, instrument flight errors, faulty glide slope indicators, poor weather conditions and mistakes by crew members. This is a remarkably efficient and accurate assessment by the coroner, who should be commended for the speed and accuracy of his report, which was published an hour before take-off.

Well done!
should of listened to her as well
that it took Putin that long to take him out.
Not saying Prigozhin was the shareholder blocking the deal but I have absolutely no criticism of Global Football Partners and never have.
