Yevgeny Prigozhin: 'Ten killed' in private jet crash in Russia with Wagner boss on board

Russian state media has said eight bodies have been found following the crash 60 miles north of Moscow, and that the mercenary leader's name was on the passenger list - two months after his failed coup attempt against Vladimir Putin.

What a weird coincidence.

Darn shame.

These things happen.

Now THATS my Putin!

Coincendence takes planning.

 

[Blaster]

I predicted he'd be dead before the year ended.

 

[BackAgain]

I bet they wanted him to go down in Ukraine. But failing that, fuck him. He can go down in Russia.

The plan must have been very clever.

Biden approves.

 

[Pellinore]

Well, no one saw that coming. And by "no one," I of course mean everyone.

Why on Earth would he get in an airplane? Was he so confident in himself that he failed to realize that his only chance was to lock himself in a windowless room, a la Ali Larter in "Final Destination 2"?

The most risky he should have gotten was to be in a nondescript but heavily-armored car, driven on back roads by a trusted relative, with minimum three decoy cars taking other routes.

Nothing suspicious about this.(SARCASM)

First before suspecting a coincidence, is the question on whether the CIA was involved?

For a hint, start with the identities of the other nine.

Notice this little tidbit from the OP article:

Multiple videos circulating on social media appear to show the jet crashing.

Somebody knew to be watching.

I don't think Putin vendors out his dirty work......he loves his KGB.

Just pulled this up:

Several Telegram channels reported that the jet was shot down by air defense system. Another version is a terror attack on board. The reports also said that Prigozhin's "right hand" in the Wagner group, Dmitry Utkin, was also killed in the crash.

Excellent hopefully Putin is next

 

[Mac1958]

Shocking!

 

[ColonelAngus]

Poot probably asked Hillary for advice on the hit.

 

[Rambunctious]

Why would he get on a plane?... he must not be very smart....

Usually they accidentally fall from high buildings. Foes of Putin just have the darnedest bad luck. Who would have ever thought this could happen? They really need to maintain their aircraft better.

He was stupid enough to think that Putty would not kill him....he's dead.

 

[JohnDB]

GRU chief was also on the plane....

 

[DigitalDrifter]

As bad as things are in this country, at least we haven't gotten to the point where our leaders are assassinating one another. Yet.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Damn, why couldn't that have been Joe!

Would hate to lose AF1 though.
