I'm willing to bet that this was ordered by a general affiliated with one who was humiliated by the Wagner revolt a couple months ago without any direct approval or orders from Putin. Expect another high ranking officer to disappear/fall off a building in the near future. The fact they are refusing to confirm his body among those in the wreckage and deferring to the manifest makes it sound like somebody made a really big mistake, one way or another.
Prigozhin's "coup" was never at any point directed at Putin or Moscow. This was a flat out lie by the media; he was really turning against the military command staff who he (accurately) viewed as incompetent and wanted replaced, at least in part because they were withholding supplies from his troops, and dropping bombs and artillery strikes on his own positions. His entire "revolt" consisted of shooting down a helicopter that tried to intercept his column. Prigo was butt-buddies with Putin for decades, and everything he did from executing some pretty sick atrocities in Syria to exposing inept leadership in Ukraine was done for, and possibly by order of Putin himself.

+1 yYa think? Hmmm... let's see, the top 2 guys were listed as passengers. Who knows if they were actually on the plane. Here's what I know - nobody knows anything yet. You won't even know for sure if there's an "official Russian announcement" that they were on the plane and their bodies have been identified".
Putin lies MORE than Fox News, more than Trump, if that's even possible. Who knows at this point?

+1 yHe already died weeks ago in my eyes when he betrayed his country. I was surprised he made it so far. You cannot be a traitor and live to hurt your country once more. Robert hansseon lived in a box of concrete until his death for spying and treason.

@strateguy632 at war there is no court procedures. Courts are perks of the time of peace. Many generals or citizens are assasinated for treasons on both sides since this war began whether announced on the news or not.
I suspect Shoigu was behind this. Putin going through all the trouble to get wankers back in rank and file only to kill Prigo now seems a bit off.
Also Putin prefers more subtle assassination methods. Shooting down a plane in broad daylight is a bit on the nose.

+1 yHe was a dead man walking since the day he turned on Putin. It was just a matter of time. I am shocked that he was too dumb to get it.

The good news is he's dead. The bad news is that every member of the Russian government from Putin down isn't.
+1 yTheory 1. He fakes his death. He has like 5 fake passports.
Theory 2. He did die and the Wagner mercenaries are out to get Putin.
Theory 3. He is just dead and thats the end of it.
Nobody knows whats going on here. why did he lead a coup then abandon it at the last minute?

+1 yIt was suicide. Prigozihn removed a few bolts where one wing was attached to the fuselage. Prigozhin didn’t want his buddy Putin to be blamed for his death.
