Russian investigators have confirmed the death of Yevgeny Prigozhin, founder of the mercenary group Wagner, in a plane crash earlier this week based on results of genetic tests.
Svetlana Petrenko, spokesperson of the country’s Investigative Committee, said in a statement on Sunday that forensic testing identified all 10 bodies recovered at the site of Wednesday’s crash and the findings “conform to the manifest” of the plane.
The statement did not offer any details as to what might have caused the crash.
