Prigozhin’s aircraft had a tragic mid air collision with a Russian missile that was also operating in the same airspace

I admire the balls of the people willing to fly in the same plane as him, not to mention the air crew.

What an unfortunate accident that no one could have predicted.

"he was a lovely boy, always smiling, so polite".

[nvmjrbn]

I read he was extremely careful to avoid 3rd floor balconies and windows.

[freedomfirst]

The shock was that he lived this long. I'm also amazed he thought that he was special and wasn't going to get killed.

From a Hotdog vender to the head of a Private Military. What a life. Anything is truly possible.

[alexmiller]

Nice to see Moscow's air defences were successful this time.

[williamwaters]

In Russia this is called early retirement.

Pilot: Who is the passenger?
Crew: Prigozhin
Pilot: Great, hold on a sec, need to say goodbye to my family.

[makeracistsafraidagain]

I’m honestly surprised that this took so long.

[Senna]

It wasn't a plane crash .... it was a special impact operation.

[szili]

Can we have a moment of silence for the poor plane😢😢😢

[JAYSEE]

That plane didn’t crash, it was a special military landing!

[timg]

Proghozin did not meet an un-timely end. His life dragged on long beyond what it should have.

[neilvend]

Terrible that 9 other people had to die just to kill Prigozhin.

[kushseti]

I would never get into a plane or car with that man.

[yitcvjrTmkjV]

A special military life expectancy shortening operation.

[keegan]

It is alleged that two Russian anti aircraft missiles were launched just prior to the crash.
Putin, meanwhile, was attending a concert to establish his alibi.

[qasimat]

If he was not on the plane, watch out.
