Prigozhin killed in "plane crash"

Hilarious how brazen this is

Well, they killed Wagner leader Yevgeny Prigozhin - plane crash in Russia, 9 others also dead.

Edit: Beaten to the punch.

Wow. Shocking, though not at all surprising!

Apparently it was shot down by Russian air defences!

No way!

"He tripped and fell on his own Buk missile."

Er mah gawd

The plane tripped and fell out of the window.

Not that somebody being murdered is in any way funny, but strawberry floating hell

I bet the Russians spent all night loosening all the necessary nuts and bolts, they must be knackered.

EDIT: Never mind, just seen it was shot down instead.

Just a matter of time but Putin's not even subtle about his method. A very public murder to frighten anyone else who might try the same thing.

It never made sense that Prigozhin gave up when he did, he should have known he wouldn't live for much longer. Exile to Belarus was never a viable long term plan.

Hang on I thought he got exiled to Belarus? What’s he doing on a plane that definitely just exploded on its own accord outside Moscow?

Maybe he answered the door to some hired goons who then placed him on it?

Here is your ticket home, a 1st class ticket on Oceanic flight 815 comrade!

Putin

The Wagner group are saying they’ll march on Moscow again* if his death is confirmed.


*for two hours

Strong reports the plane was simply shot down by air defence as opposed to sabotage.

Surely if you're Wagner, you're getting the strawberry float out of Dodge right about now.
