Prigozhin bizjet crashes of Suddenly™, all aboard eat shit and die.
Just a week after another Russian senior general running things for the Ministry of Defense, lately jailed, also succumbed to a mysteriously coincidental case of Suddenly™.
Maybe Putin's making them all get COVID boosters. Or something.

Whatever it is, if Putin's army could kill Ukrainian troops as well as Putin gets rid of Russian generals, they'd be parked around the Ukrainian parliament building in Kiev on T-90 tanks, and enjoying a late summer tan in Odessa, instead of getting pushed back in Luhansk and Donetsk, at a snail's pace, but always rearward.
And the Usual Suspects will still convince themselves that the Wagner mutiny "wasn't really a coup attempt."
Prigozhin screwed up. One thing you don't do with dictators is start a coup then let yourself get talked out of whatever you were going to do with the dictator.

Prigozhin should have gone all the way to the Kremlin, dragged Putin out by his balls, then hung him in Red Square from the gun barrel of a tank. That's the only way to deal with a guy like that.

Putin has gotten away with his 'special operation' so far because the drafts of personnel have come from everywhere but the Moscow oblast. That is coming to an end and Muscovites will have their opportunity in turn. Whether that turns the populace against him is anybody's guess and might be moot to begin with.
