Andriy Parubiy shot dead in Lviv

Today, around noon, the police received a report of a shooting in the Sykhiv district of Lviv. Law enforcement officers are investigating the circumstances of the murder of a public and political figure in Lviv. This was reported by the press service of the National Police.

The victim died at the scene as a result of his injuries. It has been established that the deceased was a well-known public and political figure born in 1971.
Later, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky received a report from Ukrainian Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko and Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko regarding the circumstances of the horrific murder in Lviv.

‘Andriy Parubiy has died. My condolences to his family and loved ones,’ Zelensky said.

Andriy Sadovyi, the mayor of Lviv, said that the most important thing is for law enforcement agencies to find the killer and establish all the circumstances. This is a matter of security in a country at war, where, as we can see, there are no completely safe places.

“I ask journalists to be understanding and not to seek additional comments. Law enforcement agencies should now work and comment,” he said.

We recall that on the eve of the elections in Ukraine 26 years ago, Vyacheslav Chornovil died. Politician Vyacheslav Chornovil died in an accident on 25 March 1999. The car in which he was travelling collided with a KamAZ truck.
