After the death of the head of the private militia Wagner Group in a plane crash in Russia, US officials say they believe that a missile from inside Russia may have killed Yevgeny Prigozhin. The plane was shot down.
In a statement from Washington, US officials said that Prigozhin’s plane was probably shot down by a surface-to-air missile.
US officials added in their statement that information about Prigozhin’s death is still preliminary and under review.
According to the news agency, Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of the Wagner Group, was killed in a plane crash in Russia yesterday. The Wagner group announced a coup against Russian President Putin in June.
It should be noted that the head of the Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, announced the end of the rebellion on the Belarus exile agreement.
