Financial Times - Putin breaks silence on Prigozhin to confirm Wagner warlord is dead

Vladimir Putin has “broken his silence” on Wednesday’s plane crash in Russia to say publicly that Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin is dead, the Financial Times reports.

The paper carries a picture of a body bag being carried away from the wreckage of the crashed jet in the Tver region, north of Moscow. The broadsheet reports the president expressed condolences to the family of the dead, as well as paying tribute personally to Prigozhin, calling him a “talented businessman”. 

The front page also covers the cost of the UK asylum system nearly doubling in the past year to almost £4bn.
