Watch Yevgeny Prigozhin Plane Crash Video (Full Video)
Watch the complete video of the plane crash involving Yevgeny Prigozhin on platforms like Youtube, Twitter, Reddit, and Tiktok. The footage captures the moment when the aircraft, carrying the mercenary leader, spirals out of control, descends from a high altitude, and crashes into the ground, leaving behind a smoke trail. The private plane appears to be uncontrollable as it vertically descends before crashing into a field. Shortly after the collision, a dense plume of black smoke emerges from the crash site.
The video depicts clear skies, indicating favorable weather conditions. Another video shows the aircraft fuselage ablaze on the ground. On board were Dmitry Utkin, the commander of the Wagner Group, and Prigozhin, as confirmed by the Russian Civil Aviation Authority.
The flight from Moscow to St. Petersburg carried three pilots and seven passengers. It went down to the north of Moscow. TASS news agency reported that ten people were on board. Subsequently, eight fatalities were discovered at the accident scene, according to the Russian state news agency RIA and emergency services.
Russian authorities stated that there were no survivors. Flight monitoring data revealed that Prigozhin had been aboard a private jet registered to Wagner, departing from Moscow on Wednesday night. Its transponder signal vanished shortly after takeoff. The rural area where the signal was lost had no nearby airfields suitable for an emergency landing.
After his forces marched on Moscow, the mercenary leader, dispatched to Belarus, shared a video of himself dressed in camouflage and holding a rifle. In the video, he appeared to be in Africa and discussed working towards liberation on the continent. Prigozhin also mentioned Wagner’s efforts against terrorist organizations in the region and expressed plans to enhance their presence in Africa. He provided details about Wagner’s recruitment and even shared a contact number for those interested in joining.
