Staunchly pro-Putin ‘war criminal’ and local MP, Oleg Popov, 51, was killed in a car bombing on 6 December 2023 in occupied Luhansk city, say multiple reports. Footage showed his burning car after an explosion – and it came just hours after the killing traitor MP Ilya Kyva. Popov was in an armed pro-Putin unit that seized an intelligence service base in Luhansk in 2014. He turned against Ukraine when the Russians annexed Crimea and Putin’s stooges took control of the eastern regions.
