Pro-Kyiv Russians urge Wagner Group to revenge Prigozhin's death

(Reuters) - A group of Russian militants who fight on the Ukrainian side called on the Wagner Group of mercenaries to switch sides and join their ranks to revenge the deaths of Wagner founder Yevgeny Prigozhin and their commander Dmitry Utkin.

Russian air authorities have said Prigozhin, Utkin and eight other people were on a private plane that crashed with no survivors north of Moscow on Wednesday.

Russia has opened an investigation into the crash, but its outcome is unlikely to shake a widespread belief that Prigozhin was killed as an act of vengeance for staging the mutiny. After 24 hours of silence, Russian President Validimir Putin paid"sincere condolences" to the families of all 10 people on the plane, and praised Prigozhin as a"talented businessman".
