    His plane has crashed and he’s on the passenger list, but it’s not proven yet that he was on the plane. He’s the person, who faked his death in the past.

      It seems like oddly coincidental timing that Russia also officially relieved Surovikin as head of the airforce today (he still hasn’t been seen since the mutiny): https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/aug/23/russia-removes-sergei-surovikin-as-head-of-aerospace-forces

      Not saying he’s definitely dead, but I doubt this is him faking his own death so much as him slipping an assassination attempt if he’s alive.

        Ah yes. The general who the Kremlin said was “resting.” Nothing ominous about that.

        Agreed, coordinated take down of Prigozhin and his allies.

      I heard it played out exactly like the opening scene from Dark Knight Rises, too.

      There were 10 people on the plane (3 pilots, 7 passengers) but they only recovered 8 bodies…

      THERE’S A CHANCE HE’S ALIVE!

        North Koreans going to Ukraine was a psyop. They were actually hired by Prigozhin to go to Russia and resurrect him after tricking everyone he died

          If he did I doubt any of us will ever hear from him again.

          I’m sorry about your username.

      Imagine blowing up a $5M Embraer just to fake his own death - and kill others in the process.

      I’m sure Putin’s chef had money lying around, but burning all that cash sounds a little desperate to me.

        Raise hands if you’d rather die for realsies to save $5M in expenses
