According to AFP, SBU intelligence orchestrated the assassination of Illia Kyva, a former Ukrainian lawmaker who was kicked out of parliament and defected to Russia weeks after Moscow announced its military offensive last year.

It will be 365 days since Moscow's troops first marched into parts of Ukraine that weren't yet under Russian occupation. However, what the Kremlin hoped for in a snap over the government of Ukraine has devolved into a brutal war of attrition, with Kyiv's forces pulling the invaders back into the east. Despite a string of setbacks, Putin is expected to launch another big offensive in the hopes of boosting his armies' momentum and securing victory in Ukraine once and for all, according to Kyiv's defence minister Oleksiy Reznikov. The Ukrainian defense minister said the true number of the force could be closer to 500,000, referring to Russia's partial mobilization of 300,000 conscripted troops, which Moscow announced in November.
