Kriegsbesprechung in der Ukraine: Kremlgegner Ildar Dadin stirbt im Kampf auf ukrainischer Seite | Ukraine | Der Wächter

Anti-Kremlin activist Ildar Dadin, who was once imprisoned in Russia for protesting against Vladimir Putin, was killed on the frontline while fighting on the Ukrainian side, his relatives and Russian media said Sunday. “It is with deep regret that I must inform you that Ildar Dadin – call sign Gandhi – died yesterday in combat in the Kharkiv region” in north-east Ukraine, said his friend and former Russian MP Ilya Ponomarev, who is living in exile. Dadin was the first Russian citizen to be convicted under a 2014 law clamping down on protests in the country.

Heroes come in all forms. May he RIP.
