A Russian former deputy from Chuvashia, Vladimir Dmitriev, was killed in the war in Ukraine. He was a member of Vladimir Putin's party, according to ASTRA.

It is noted that Dmitriev was previously a deputy from the Tsivilsky district in Chuvashia. He was elected from Putin's United Russia party.

The media reports that Dmitriev was first engaged in collecting humanitarian aid and then went to war as a volunteer.

Not the first MP to die on the side of Russia

The Russian Federation is recruiting a large number of people, including former and current MPs, to fight against Ukraine.

Some of them died in the territory of Ukraine. Last year, the media outlet We Can Explain reported on dozens of MPs whom they managed to identify as having died on the side of the Russian army.
