Assuming he is still alive, he should probably try to hide at point Nemo or so. With a changed face. Underwater. Alone. With no network or internet access.
Independent journalist Andrei Zakharov, citing an unnamed source, said Prigozhin on Wednesday was returning to Russia from a trip in Africa, where Wagner mercenaries have operated for years and where Prigozhin was recently filmed for a recruitment video.
“It would be a miracle if he’s on another plane,” the source said.>
It was a private plane with a guy onboard that everyone in Russia knows is a dead man walking. Every person on that plane knew that being within 500m of the guy was a constant hazard.
If Prig got dusted, better hope there aren’t to many of his comrades in arms who don’t hold a grudge. Because Russia has been dredging the prisons and slums to give uniforms to. And Wagner’s crew are to say the least a bit more motivated (ie fucken bloodthirsty)

Niger’s military junta has announced plans to prosecute deposed President Mohamed Bazoum for high treason and undermining national security.
But in a sign that it is hardening its position, the junta said in a statement read out on state TV that it had gathered evidence to prosecute “the deposed president and his local and foreign accomplices for high treason and undermining the internal and external security of Niger”.
Junta-appointed Prime Minister Ali Mahamane Lamine Zeine said he was optimistic that talks with Ecowas would take place in the coming days “to discuss how the sanctions against us will be lifted”.
The coup in Niger mirrored similar takeovers in neighbouring Burkina Faso and Mali, amid an Islamist insurgency and a growing Russian influence in the wider Sahel region through its mercenary group Wagner.
Despite his captivity, Mr Bazoum was able to publish an article in The Washington Post stating that he was a hostage and that the coup would have “devastating consequences for our country, our region and the entire world”.
His daughter Zazia, 34, who was on holiday in France during the coup, told the UK-based Guardian newspaper last week that her father, mother and brother had no clean water or electricity and were living on rice and pasta.
I’ve been outside for the last three nights in hopes of seeing it and possibly getting a pic or two, and each time it’s hazy or clouds roll overhead by the time I get to a good dark area to observe anything.
But that’s the beauty of the internet. I can always see it through someone else’s (better) camera at least. It’s nice to hope though…
Closest I got to see anything was I saw a bit of flash out of the corner of my eye twice, but that’s about it. Still going to go out again tonight for a bit and hope for the best… maybe I’ll get lucky.
I wish you luck. It certainly gets frustrating since the “100 meteor/hour” includes the whole sky and very faint meteors. I was at a mild suburban beach outside the metro areas (Bortle class 4/5) and saw maybe 10/ hour. That’s 1 every 6 minutes but could be 2 every 12, 3 after 18 mins, etc. Just gotta keep looking up. I tried to catch more while driving home and while taking out the trash but with much less success lol
Last night (well, early this morn) I did manage to see a few but didn’t manage to get any decent pics. Thankfully I live in a very low light pollution area so it’s not like I have to go far from my house, weather permitting. (according to lightpollutionmap.info my value is 0, but if it’s hazy I can see the glow from nearby towns.)
