UPDATED – Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin was on a plane that crashed in western Russia killing all on board, according to the country’s aviation authority
His name was on the list of those “declared as travelling on board” the plane, along with key Wagner commander Dmitry Utkin
The Russian Emergencies Ministry has said that private aircraft "came down” near the village of Kuzhenkino

That’s kind of concerning, since it seems to suggest that business leaders in Russia support Putin and weren’t aiming for a coup of their own, unless Prigozhin was somehow a threat to whatever coup they might be planning (if it was being planned at all). Granted, “senior people in the business community” are probably all Putin cronies anyways.
