Watch Moment Plane Carrying Russian Mercenary, Yevgeny Prigozhin And 10 Others Crashed (Video)
The leader of Wagner, Yevgeny Prigozhin alongside ten others has been killed in a plane crash.
Prigozhin died with seven passengers and three crew who were on board the Embraer aircraft.
A video has been spotted online showing the moment a plane believed to be carrying Wagner boss, Yevgeny Prigozhin crashed and burst into flames in a field in rural Russia.
Shocking footage shows the business jet, thought to be carrying seven passengers and three pilots, falling through the sky, with a trail of black smoke following behind it.
The plane then crashes into a field in the Bologovsky district in the Tver region, 60 miles north of Moscow, bursting into a ball of flames.
The 62-year-old mercenary boss had headed the mutiny in June, moving his troops from Ukraine, seizing the southern Russian city of Rostov on Don, and threatening to march on Moscow.
The move came after months of tension with Russian military commanders over the Ukraine conflict.
The stand-off was settled by a deal that allowed Wagner troops to move to Belarus or join the Russian army.
