Wagner Group makes chilling revenge threat after warlord Prigozhin’s plane crashes

The mercenary leader, who led a brief armed rebellion against the Russian military earlier this year, is presumed dead after a plane crash north of Moscow that killed all 10 on board

Masked men claiming to be part of the Wagner Group have released a chilling video promising revenge after the apparent death of warlord Yevgeny Prigozhin.

The mercenary leader, who led a brief armed rebellion against the Russian military earlier this year, is presumed dead after a plane crash north of Moscow that killed all 10 people on board.

Prigozhin was on the plane, according to Russia’s civil aviation agency, which cited the airline. The crash immediately raised suspicions since the fate of the founder of the Wagner private military company has been the subject of intense speculation ever since he mounted the mutiny.

At the time, President Vladimir Putin denounced the rebellion as “treason” and a “stab in the back” and vowed to avenge it. But the charges against Prigozhin were soon dropped. The Wagner chief, whose troops were some of the best fighting forces for Russia in Ukraine, was allowed to retreat to Belarus, while reportedly popping up in Russia from time to time.
