Yevgeny Prigozhin, the notorious Russian mercenary leader believed to be on board a plane that crashed Wednesday, has been confirmed dead by Russian authorities.

Though Prigozhin, the head of the Wagner private military company, was one of 10 people listed on the plane's flight manifest, Russian officials refrained from verifying his death until genetic testing was completed.

Russia's Investigative Committee confirmed Sunday that the remains of all 10 passengers listed on board were found in the wreckage.
