The warning comes after Wagner Group chief Yevgeny Prigozhin was confirmed dead after specialists carried out genetic evaluation on the our bodies discovered within the personal jet that crashed down on Wednesday night, Russian officers have claimed.

The Kremlin has been busy batting off hypothesis it ordered the airplane crash, a declare the Russian Government has furiously dismissed as an "absolute lie".

"It's not simply that you've got mercenaries just like the Wagner Group. There are all types of personal armies working in Russia.

"I was even reading how the Defence Minister is starting his own army, and you think about how Putin has been using Chechen forces.

"There’s plenty of warlords about. This is a really scary scenario."

This comes after jailed opposition chief Alexei Navalny warned the loss of life of Wagner Group chief Yevgeny Prigozhin may ship Russia hurtling towards a civil war.

Soldiers from the mercenary group have threatened to exact revenge for his death - as well as that of second-in-command Dmitry Utkin and several other key lieutenants - by storming the Kremlin.

The Kremlin has strenuously denied any involvement in the plane crash, although the US Department of Defence said its preliminary assessment suggested the incident was caused intentionally by an explosion aboard the aircraft.

Some Wagner supporters have even suggested a bomb had been planted in a case of wine that was in the plane.

Navalny accused arch-nemesis Putin of ordering the alleged explosion in a message to his supporters.

The jailed opposition leader, who survived an assassination attempt in 2020, labelled the crash "an actual terrorist act" and claimed it would result in making Prigozhin a martyr for his supporters.

"He added: "It is precisely from these ingredients that the dish called 'civil war' is made."

The Wagner Group's future stays unclear following the airplane crash on Wednesday, however the Ministry of Defence claimed Prigozhin's presumed loss of life has left a "leadership vacuum".

It added in an intelligence briefing: "The demise of Prigozhin almost certainly would have a deeply destabilising effect on the Wagner Group.

"His private attributes of hyperactivity, distinctive audacity, a drive for outcomes, and excessive brutality permeated Wagner and are unlikely to be matched by any successor."

The Kremlin has rapidly made the transfer to announce all paramilitary fighters must now swear an oath to the Russian flag.

A brand new decree, signed by Putin, states they are going to be required to pledge "loyalty to the Russian Federation… strictly observe their commanders’ and superiors’ orders, and rigorously fulfil their obligations".
