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.
I heard it played out exactly like the opening scene from Dark Knight Rises, too.
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.
Impressive Russia was able to push an entire plane out of a high rise window.
Hexbear and default lemmy libs coming together to laugh at prigozhin getting merced is so goddamn funny lmao.
Literally the no more brother wars meme
Never get on board a helicopter, and never go on board a plane if you just pissed off a guy famous for offing his political enemies. Come on guy, that's politics 101.
Seriously, have none of these guys listened to Rachel Jake's podcast?
come to think of it don't try and fail to kill putin no fucking way that works out
I've never seen tankies and libs ever so united in celebration.
It's as if leftists do not actually like Putin or any of the other ghouls on the Russian side, but are instead critical of NATO and willing to consider NATO opponents as rational actors instead of cartoon villains.
I oppose NATO over other Ghoulish countries because it's a greater threat to the world right now.
I'm gonna sound like a fringe conspiracy theorist here, but you guys,,, What if this was no random accident? What if someone intentionally made the plane crash? But who? And why?
Guess you could say the plane was denazified.
honestly how could you be stupid enough to get on plane w/ that guy? this was the single most predictable event of the entire conflict.
I, uh, left my phone in the hotel... I'll catch the next one.
Wait, am I reading this right that the plane was shot down by russian air defence? If this is backed up at all by anything like a russian source, then this will just further enforce option that russia can not be trusted to do anything it says and that putin is weak and threatened (both are true but I thought the kremlin would at least try to say/show otherwise).
How does russia keep messing up this bad? I am constantly shocked and awed.
I don't understand the logic here. When the putsch occured and then ignomously fizzled out, I saw Putin as weak for letting Pringles walk out with a (relative) slap on the wrist. Taking Prigo out of the picture was overdue. Obviously, anyone would feel threatened by an semi-autonomous mercenary army, so removing its leadership and breaking it up is just a rational course of action that probably should have been done sooner from that POV
"Plane crash" lol
They literally blew his nazi loving ass out of the sky.
Well the plane did crash against the missiles sent towards it.
never get in a helicopter (or other small aircraft)
I am shocked I tell you. Who could have predicted such an accident
My bad guys, first day on the anti-aircraft guns
In exchange, he gets to not be dead for a while.
Prigozhin should probably be careful touching doorknobs for a while regardless.
Does it count as calling it if I got the method of assassination wrong?
No. It's like 'Clue.' Need the room, the suspect, and the weapon or it doesn't count.
cw suicide
two surface to air missiles to the back of the head is such a tragic way to commit suicide
tiny dancer playing softly in the background . . .
He just died? Wow. I didn’t know that. You are telling me now for the first time. He led an amazing life. What else can you say. Whether you agreed or not, he was an amazing man who led an amazing life. I am actually sad to hear that. I am sad to hear that.
What a disappointing guy. The least he could have done was take out Putin before he died.
lmao, you know he had to do it to him
He's leading a Special Military Operation in the afterlife now.
I'm fully expecting Russian media to explain how those evil Ukranians sneaked a missile battery or a fighter jet into Moscow airspace and shot down a plane that just happened to contained Putin's mortal enemies.
Putin got tired of getting outranked by Prigo in the Chad-Cuck power ranking.
I'm loving all the tankie tears in here. They don't know who to support. LOL. I love how ruZZia is slowly eating its own tail and destroying itself, just typical of a fascist state. Slava Ukraini! Slava NATO!
Slava Ukraini! Slava NATO!
you don't have to yell, we know you're a fascist
yes, the people who love RUZZIA are absolutely fuming that Putin consolidated power.
fucking moron.
Lmao who is cryin u weirdo
Umm okay?
What tankie tears are you referring to? This entire post is everyone joking around and generally not giving a FUCK that a PMC far right oligarch got got.
Also you ARE aware that the vast majority of communist parties are not pro-Russia whatsoever right? That the "critical support to Russia" people are ultra minoritarian in the world communist movement, whereas the majority condemns BOTH NATO's role since 2014 (and prior) in precipating the situation leading to the Russian invasion, AND Russia for well, invading? Some even saying this war is one of inter-imperialist competition or close to one? That there is no good side but that of seeking peace asap for the sake of the working class, given the possibility of turning this bourgeois war into a revolutionary class war in both Ukraine, Russia, and the west is impossible atm?
Slava Ukraini! Slava NATO!
Deeply embarassing behavior. It's a war dude, not a sport match.
