Russia says genetic tests confirm Wagner chief died in plane crash August 27, 2023 at 01:09AM

"After forensic testing, all 10 bodies recovered at the site of the crash were identified, and their identities 'conform to the manifest," the committee said in a statement. Prigozhin, 62, was killed two months after he mounted a daylong mutiny against Russia's military that President Vladimir Putin decried as 'treason'. Putin recalled the Wagner chief as a 'talented man who made mistakes'.
