Controversial former Member of Parliament Ilia Kyva has been neutralized. This was a special operation conducted by the Security Service of Ukraine, according to RBC-Ukraine's sources.

"The elimination of the top traitor, collaborator, and propagandist Ilia Kyva is a special operation by the Security Service of Ukraine," sources reported.

According to their information, the former Member of Parliament was shot dead.

Background

Today, December 6, Russian media began reporting, citing sources, that the former Ukrainian MP Ilia Kyva was found dead.

His body was supposedly discovered in the Moscow region in the Odintsovo district, as clarified by Russian propaganda outlets.

Ilia Kyva supported Russia in the war against Ukraine. Even before the full-scale invasion, the former MP fled to the territory of the aggressor country.

Last year, he was put on an international wanted list. At that time, the State Bureau of Investigations had collected all necessary documents for this purpose.

Several weeks ago, a Ukrainian court sentenced Kyva in absentia to 14 years in prison for state treason and other charges.

The sentence couldn't be executed as the former MP continued to reside in Russia.
