Moscow: Putin will attend the funeral of Wagner Group chief Prigozhin? Kremlin confirmed

Last week, 10 people were killed in a plane crash, including the head of the Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin. Russia was being told responsible for this. However, a clarification has been given by the Kremlin on this. At the same time, it was being discussed that Russian President Putin would go to attend Prigozhin's funeral.

The Kremlin said Tuesday that Russian President Vladimir Putin has no plans to attend the funeral of Wagner mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin.

Two months prior to this incident, Prigozhin and his mercenaries had launched a mutiny against Putin's top military commanders. They then took control of the southern city of Rostov and began to advance towards Moscow before withdrawing 200 km (125 mi) from the capital.
