Analysis of unconfirmed open source media suggests either a SAM or air-to-air missile was used to bring it down due to a pattern of small, inward puncture marks indicative of a blast-frag proximity warhead. A bomb on-board would've created outward, localized, and larger mushrooming deformation.
At the same time, the head of Russia's aerospace forces, Sergei Surovikin, was fired for being too close to Prigozhin. It's still unclear if he's on an actual vacation, in hiding, detained, disappeared, or dead.
