A channel representing the remnants of Wagner PMC reported that Mikhail Prikhodko, commander of the 9th Assault Unit, call sign "Michael," was killed in Mali on October 12. He was leading a mobile group deployed to "contain an Islamist breakthrough" when he sustained fatal injuries.

Prikhodko was also listed in Ukraine's "Myrotvorets" database for his role in the destruction of Bakhmut and involvement in the killing of Ukrainian citizens.

  1. *”Michael”*? Wait, this does not sound like a particularly Z-patriotic and Western-culture-hating nickname?

    …no Lada for you, Svetlana!

    Good riddance, pity it wasn’t a Ukrainian sniper that got him but fine, we’ll take it. I hope all these Wagner bastards will meet a similar fate.

  3. Everybody is just jealous because they know the hero’s star comes with your choice of a bag of onions or potatoes, but you can only choose one, you can’t have both.

  4. A week or two ago, another large group of the Wagner PMC were ki||ed in Mali.. The first group that was ki||ed are still laying out there..

    Russians: “We don’t abandon our own” lol

    Of course… I thought that in fairy tales, 3, 7 and 12 played a role as special magical numbers. In Russian fairy tales, it’s 8…

    The other side, which no longer existed after the “total destruction”, inflicted a fatal injury on the successful leader, to which he succumbed. Reads more like “friendly fire”, killed by a shot in the foot.

    Almost sounds like a little skirmish turned into such a big clusterf@ck, that Russian CAS and artillery bombed the whole scene, Russians and all.

  8. Without a body all this is telling me is he went into hiding. These fucks think they can write up their own obituary and become invisible?
