A plane crash in Russia has killed all 10 people on board, including Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the Wagner mercenary group. It is unclear if Prigozhin was on the aircraft at the time of the crash. The plane, an Embraer business jet, crashed in Russia's Tver region. Flight tracking data shows that a private jet registered to Wagner took off from Moscow but lost its transponder signal shortly after takeoff. Prigozhin had recently appeared in a video in Africa, where Wagner has been active, and the group has been involved in securing natural resources for certain countries.
