Kyva died from gunshot wounds, according to NV’s sources.
Initial reports of Kyva’s death surfaced on Russian Telegram channels, with Mash, a propagandist outlet, claiming that Kyva’s lifeless body, was discovered in a park area of the Velich Country Club hotel in Suponevo, Moscow Oblast. Hotel staff declined to comment, citing directives from management.
Kyva’s body was found around 3 p.m., but resuscitation attempts by paramedics were unsuccessful. Mash reported a cut wound on the right temple and a hematoma on Kyva’s left side.
“The bloodied body of Illia Kyva was found lying in the snow on the hotel’s park premises,” the report says.
Before the full-scale Russian invasion, Kyva fled to Spain. Subsequently, he appeared in broadcasts with Russian propagandists in Moscow, actively disseminating falsehoods about Ukraine and parroting the Kremlin’s propaganda narratives. Kyva also sought “political asylum” and citizenship in Russia.
