leader, a report claims.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mercenaries have been urged to &#8216;strictly&#8217; follow the commands of Russian leaders\u00a0in the hopes of building &#8216;the spiritual and moral foundations for the defence of the Russian Federation&#8217;, according to The Telegraph.<\/p>\n<p>The new oath comes amid speculation that\u00a0Yevgeny Prigozhin was assassinated by the Kremlin, as he and nine others reportedly died when a private jet crashed near Moscow on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Ten charred bodies and flight recorders have now been recovered from the scene, with investigators

Kremlin<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The investigation will carefully check all possible versions of what happened,&#8217; the Russian Investigative Committee said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry of Defence said there was &#8216;not yet definitive proof&#8217; that Prigozhin was on the private jet that crashed after an explosion on board but it was &#8216;highly likely&#8217;.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It also warned that his death would have &#8216;a deeply destabilising effect&#8217; on his mercenary group, which operates in hotspots around the world including Ukraine, Syria and several African countries.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, an engineer\u00a0who carried out last minute repairs to the doomed plane is also under interrogation by the Russian authorities, a Telegram channel has reported.<\/p>\n<p>Sergey Kitrish was said to have &#8216;constantly worked&#8217; with Prigozhin&#8217;s aircraft and replaced his\u00a0landing gear brake and turbo cooler before the
