Yevgeny Prigozhin died
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] The tragic news caught when I was on the plane.

In the Tver region, a plane belonging to Yevgeny Prigozhin crashed.

A total of 10 people died. Among them are Yevgeny Prigozhin and Dmitry Utkin (aka "Wagner"), as well as several people from Prigozhin's close circle. All 10 years found and identified.

The reasons for the plane crash are not completely clear. The main versions for the evening are a bomb explosion on board and shelling by air defense systems.

Eyewitnesses heard 1 or 2 explosions before the plane crashed. Of course, there is malicious intent here. Whose question. Much will become clear when there is more texture for the reasons for the explosion that led to the crash of the plane.

An era is gone today. Prigozhin and Utkin created the most famous PMC of recent decades, which, in terms of its scale of activity and fame, surpassed even the American Blackwater, which was considered No. 1 PMC in the zero years.

Behind Prigozhin and Utkin, Syria, Libya, other Africa, Donbass 2014 and the liberated Popasnaya, Soledar and Artemovsk in 2022-2023. At the same time, everyone remembers the failed military mutiny in June 2023. Now everything has ended in a tragic death, which will complete the formation of a legend around these undeniably historical and complex historical figures who have played a large role in Russian politics for the past 15 years.

For Russia, this is a serious blow and, first of all, this may affect the Russian strategy in Africa, which was largely based on the enterprising operations of Wagner in a huge number of countries. On the street of the enemies of Russia today is a holiday.

Peace to the ashes of all the dead.

More from Russian military blogger Andrey Chervonets:
Prigozhin

In the Tver region, an Embraer plane belonging to Yevgeny Prigozhin crashed. This happened 15 kilometers from Khotilovo. According to information, there were three crew members and seven passengers. Whether Prigogine himself was there is still unknown.

Prigozhin's close associates cannot get through to him, media reports. Journalist Andrei Zakharov said that Yevgeny Prigozhin actually flew to Russia from Africa today, with the entire command staff of the Wagner PMC on board. “It will be a miracle if he is on another plane,” the journalist quotes his interlocutors.

The plane flew from Moscow and its path was cut off just in the Tver region, shot down on takeoff.

It is possible that they did not shoot down, but a terrorist attack on board. But rather shot down - judging by the video, the unscattered cloud, similar to the trace of a rocket, is much lower than the falling plane, that is, it is unlikely that it is from another fragment of the aircraft.

They cannot contact Prigogin. At the same time, the second plane circling over Moscow, associated with Yevgeny Prigozhin, did not request permission to land at the airports of the capital. More than an hour has passed since the first plane crashed.

There is NO excuse for the creature who gave this order. In the place of the old people in the Kremlin (who are now even afraid to fly, since they cannot control anything, are not able to), I would already recommend them to wake up and make room for the young, those who have eggs, unlike. In any case, Russia needs eggs, not ...

If this happened at the direction of Zelensky (tomorrow is the Ukrainian Day of independence, so the former clown Zelebobik could have ordered the organization of the terrorist attack), then this foul Bandera scum will die in hell. This is verified information.

Meanwhile, the channel associated with PMC Wagner claims that Prigozhin’s plane was shot down by air defense systems.

There will be no justification for the scum that gave this order. Wagner will surely take revenge, this is not forgiven, the one who gave the order is a corpse, and it does not matter WHO he is. There are those for whom "Wagner" has become a pass to a new life or access to a new level of life. There are those who saw their future in Wagner PMC. This is a very explosive mixture, which is evenly distributed throughout the country. Their next steps are still unpredictable. Although no ... Predictable ...

If Prigogine is dead - you hc.

If Prigozhin didn't die, you'll have a pts.

If I were in the place of this character, that creature, who gave the order, I wouldn’t even tense up anymore (I’m not talking about the one who directly prepared the liquidation, everything is already clear with him, but about the one who gave the go-ahead for this) - that’s a guaranteed corpse, Zelensky (especially if it’s this shit) it's either "someone else".

Not now, but within a year. Once again, this is unforgivable. Especially the Wagners. And it doesn't matter whether he is a president or not. The one who gave the order (and in any case they will find out who gave the order and Putin will not save and intercede, it is no longer in his competence, especially if it is Zelebobik), they will liquidate it anyway, let him prepare.

P.S.
Yevgeny Prigozhin and Wagner PMC commander Dmitry Utkin died in a private plane crash in the Tver region.

More, again from Andrey Chervonets
Uncle Zhenya, even from the other world, was able to call these degenerates what they really are

My short comment:

Russia's leaders must have balls. He has no right not to have them a priori.

Stalin had. Current, in the 21st century? Everyone understands. About GDP including.

P.S.
I don't envy Zelebobik and Budanov now. THEY are now walking corpses. It's only a matter of time.

And Putin will not be able to protect/prohibit beating the Ukrainian Fuhrer (everyone has already noticed, where Zeleboba is, GDP does not allow firing).

Now no one will even ask the GDP, because the wrong authority (really) and it’s not in his competence to prohibit or allow something there.

It’s not his right now to tell the Wagners how to deal with Baba

The Wagners have eggs. And they will decide. How should they do. AND DECIDE. Unlike those (you understand who I mean), who have long lost or carried these eggs with age in Moscow.

Anyone else dare to argue with me on this topic?
