Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin was on the passenger list of a plane that crashed in Russia, killing all 10 on board.
He was believed to be on board the plane.
Earlier, a Wagner-linked Telegram channel Grey Zone reported that the jet was shot down by air defences in Tver region, north of Moscow.
Prigozhin led a failed mutiny against the Russian armed forces in June.
