fubo , to worldnews in Wagner boss Prigozhin killed in plane crash in Russia

There is as yet no evidence that the plane was shot down by a Ukrainian drone built in a cave out of scrap.

lud ,

And I don’t expect there to be. I doubt they have the capability to hit targets north of Moscow.

fubo ,

Hmm. I guess that joke fell flat.

brianorca ,

Solsty air base is well north of Moscow, almost to St Petersburg. It was hit just a few days ago.

Poob ,

Sorry about your Ironman reference

Feels like Putin's lost a step, this should have been a much more interesting / inexplicable death; crushed by a herd of elephants or some such.

Now you could end the scene there, but if you keep the camera rolling…

Dankenstein , to news in Wagner boss Prigozhin killed in plane crash in Russia

Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin was on the passenger list of a jet which crashed killing all on board, Russia’s civil aviation authority has said.

Earlier, Wagner-linked Telegram channel Grey Zone reported the Embraer aircraft was shot down by air defences in the Tver region, north of Moscow.

The jet, which was flying from the capital to St Petersburg, was carrying seven passengers and three crew.

They probably don’t mind losing the crew and Piggy might have been the target (assuming this was intentional) but who else got disappeared along with him?

abbadon420 ,

Yeah I don’t think those were some random farmers who shared a private plane with the boss of Wagner

Raincloud ,

The founder of Wagner, Dmitry “Wagner” Utkin, was also on board.

Dankenstein ,

So, at the very least, our two good ol’ boys bite the dust at the expense of three crew members and five, could be, random others or support staff.

Seems a little expensive but it isn’t like the Ruskies haven’t had AA targeting issues before, makes it a believable (read: completely bullshit) excuse.

Of all the planes in the country he just happened to get on the one that lost a wing. Terrible luck!

Plane crashes. For when falling out of a window just doesn’t send a strong enough message.

Suicide by 5 shots to the back of the head wouldn’t cut it either.

ImpossibleRubiksCube ,

Forensic experts agree that he fired one bullet, then fell backward on top of the other four.

DontTreadOnBigfoot , to news in Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin feared dead after Russia plane crash
@DontTreadOnBigfoot@lemmy.world avatar

Also wouldn’t shock me if he put his name on the passenger list and had it destroyed himself to fake his death.

He has to know he had/has a target on his back

His fate was sealed when he (very briefly) went up against Putin. Right then and there he had a target on his head.

    Had to be that he decided he wasn’t going to be able to succeed so decided to try and survive a while longer.

    tacosplease ,

    Hope the next guy is paying attention. Shoot your shot. Don’t back down.

    Hazdaz ,

    Yeah that was such a bizarre series of events.

    6daemonbag ,

    IIRC his officers’ families were threatened and they forced him to back down. I could be mistaken

    Badass_panda ,

    His officers thought his odds weren’t good and wouldn’t back him, is the word on the street. Top guy gets killed, not levels 2/3

    ipkpjersi ,

    Yep. This was always going to happen. There’s no way he didn’t know this was going to happen.

    Godric ,

    If you swing on the king, you’d better not miss. He missed.

    suction , to world in Wagner boss Prigozhin killed in plane crash in Russia

    Imagine living in Russia and pretending it’s fine to just go about your day instead of marching on the Kreml with millions of others. Russians will have a very hard time in the world in the next couple of decades, similar to Germans after WW2.

    I agree. Just like the Americans.

    Badass_panda ,

    Hate to say it but geopolitical, America’s got a brighter future than just about anyone else in the world right now. Something to say for lots of reserves of your own resources, your own continent containing only healthy, friendly trade allies and demography that isn’t in the midst of collapse.

    Knowing America we’ll burn the place down to spite ourselves, but hey
