Ex-Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin has been killed in a plane crash north of Moscow, Russian news agency TASS is reporting.

 
Prigozhin was on board a plane along with 9 other people, when it crashed while flying to St Petersberg.

An Embraer Legacy 600 Business Jet going by RA-02795 which is Registered to Leader of the Wagner PMC Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin has reportedly crashed in the Tver Region of Russia to the Northwest of Moscow resulting in the death of all who were onboard.

The Russian Air Force was the hardest hit during the Wagner Rebellion. 13-29 dead. A helicopter and a plane shot down.

Prigozhin’s death up in the air is a symmetrical bookend to the whole saga.

In June, Russia had accused Prigozhin of mutiny Russia accused mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin of armed mutiny after he alleged, without providing evidence, that the military leadership had killed a huge number of his fighters in an air strike and vowed to punish them.

The standoff, many of whose details remained unclear, looked like the biggest domestic crisis President Vladimir Putin has faced since he ordered a full-scale invasion of Ukraine – something he called a “special military operation” – in February last year. #FEATURED #prigozhin #plane crash #moscow

Greenland’s PM chooses Denmark over U.S. amid Trump’s controversy over Arctic control, emphasizing sovereignty and local sentiment.


Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens‑Frederik Nielsen has delivered a clear message amid renewed pressure from the U.S. — if forced to choose between the United States and Denmark, Greenland will pick Denmark, NATO, and the EU.

Nielsen made the declaration in Copenhagen alongside Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen ahead of diplomatic talks with top U.S. officials.

The announcement comes as U.S. President Donald Trump has again stoked controversy by suggesting Washington could pursue ownership or control of Greenland, citing strategic interests in the Arctic. European leaders and Greenlandic officials have pushed back strongly against these ideas, emphasising sovereignty and respect for international law.

This standoff places Greenland’s future in the spotlight — as Copenhagen and Nuuk reaffirm their ties, local sentiment remains overwhelmingly opposed to U.S. annexation and supportive of Greenland’s own path forward.
