TL;DR Summary

Evidence suggests that the plane crash involving Yevgeny Prigozhin, a Russian businessman with ties to the Kremlin, was likely sabotage. Video clips and photos indicate that the plane's wing was severed mid-air, and air safety experts believe that an explosion of great magnitude may have caused the catastrophic failure. U.S. intelligence officials point to sabotage as the most likely cause, possibly involving an explosive on board. However, there is no evidence to support the theory that the jet was downed by a surface-to-air missile. Russian officials deny any involvement and urge waiting for forensic tests and more facts to emerge.
