“compressedgent”: Whether Putin will attend the Prigozy funeral is unknown

Peskov did not respond if Moscow had confirmed that Pigozin was aboard the plane that crashed.

Instead, he reiterated that the results of an investigation would be published once they are ready for public consumption.

Western countries say there is still no precise evidence of whether Prygozy really is dead.

Peskov also said it is impossible to know whether Russian President Vladimir Putin will attend the Prigozhin funeral, because the president according to him has “a very busy” schedule.

On Wednesday, Prigozhin and nine others on board lost their lives after the crash of the plane in Russia's Tever region.
