More info ...

Wagner leader Yevgeny Prigozhin killed as plane crashes killing all 10 on board

Sources close to him said that while the aircraft belonged to him, he usually flew on another aircraft. He was known to take huge care over his security. Earlier this week a video apparently showed him in Africa vowing to make Russian great by deploying his Wagner troops on the continent.

Former Russian presidential candidate Ksenia Sobchak said: “My sources report that an Embraer plane belonging to Yevgeny Prigozhin has now crashed in the Tver region. This happened 15 kilometres from Khotilovo. According to our information, there were three crew members and seven passengers. Whether Prigozhin himself was on board is unknown.”

I was in a parking lot when that notification popped up on my phone, and this heading was precisely what came to my mind.

MOSCOW (AP) — A private jet crashed in Russia on Wednesday, killing all 10 people aboard, emergency officials said. Mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin was on the passenger list, but it wasn't immediately clear if he was on board.

There is no conspiracy here. Most knew that Putin felt he was "stabbed in the back" and was not having any of it. He issued his instructions and it took the time necessary for them to be carried out. All the oligarchs who don't agree with the Ukraine War are now trembling in fear. They either plot well with whom they can trust - and there are few of those - or they can commit suicide or be thrown from a window or worse a plane.


For Putin, it's either "I get them before they get me and even send me off to the West to face war crimes" Putin may feel he has most of the cards, and rightly so.
