Russian state media has said eight bodies have been found following the crash 60 miles north of Moscow, and that the mercenary leader's name was on the passenger list - two months after his failed coup attempt against Vladimir Putin.
Everything to do with Yevgeny Prigozhin has been extremely murky and, of course, ever since his march on Moscow, there have been questions on whether he can survive.
Take it with a pinch of salt – we need more confirmation of that. It's pretty extraordinary. It's pretty convenient for the Kremlin. It's interesting how he survived. He was seemingly allowed to get off scot-free. Prigozhin also described how Wagner was tackling terrorist groups in the region and added that the group wanted to increase its presence in Africa.
"It's very curious what he's been up to since 24 June when this revolt happened, and I think he had crossed the line," he told Sky News.Earlier, Mr Steele said a contract had been put out on Prigozhin by members of Russia's elite over the past few weeks.While reports are circulating that the boss of the Wagner Group has apparently been killed in the jet crash, the Russian president is at a concert.
