Kremlin: Prigozhin's plane may have been deliberately crashed

The Kremlin said on Wednesday that investigators are considering the possibility that the plane, which was carrying mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin, was deliberately brought down.

"It's clear that different versions are being considered, including the version — you know what I'm talking about — of, say, deliberate malice," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on August 30 when asked about the investigation.

"Let's wait for the results of the Russian investigation," Peskov emphasized.

The private Embraer plane in which Prigozhin was traveling from St. Petersburg to Moscow crashed north of the Russian capital, killing all 10 people on board on August 23.

The cause has not yet been found.
