Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the Wagner forces fighting for Russia in Ukraine and the man who headed the short-lived coup attempt when he drove toward Moscow, appears to have been killed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Being a murderous fascist thug is tough duty.  Does it ever end well?

Of course Putin loyalists are trying to blame the death of Prigozhin and Utkin on Ukraine.  I'm not sure that would be a public relations win even on the miniscule chance that were true.  What would that say about state security if Ukrainian forces can shoot down jets within Russia?  Especially carrying high value targets.

Pro-Kremlin analyst Sergei Markov tried to flip the blame onto Ukraine.

 

“Prigozhin is dead. No one believes that this is an accident,” he said on his Telegram channel. In a separate post, hinting at how Kremlin spin doctors might frame the plane crash in the hours and days to come, Markov said the “murder of Prigozhin and Utkin … is probably a terrorist attack by Ukraine ahead of Ukraine’s Independence Day.” 

 

“All enemies of Russia are already rejoicing. The murder of Prigozhin is Ukraine’s main achievement this year,” Markov wrote.
