Ukrainians celebrate elimination of Kyva

7 December 2023, 03:40 PM

Ukraine’s SBU security Service assassinated Illia Kyva, a former MP from the now banned pro-Kremlin party Opposition Platform - For Life party, previously convicted for high treason, on Dec. 6, according to our 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.

Interestingly, this operation took place on the Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and St. Nicholas Day, which led many Ukrainians to see the event as a present from the Santa Claus analogue, thanking the “miracle worker”, as St. Nicholas is known, for getting rid of such a hated traitor.

However, Kyva was memorable to people not so much for his political activities as for his inadequate behavior and a meme in which he inexplicably referred to himself as a “little screw.”

It is also notable that on the eve of his assassination, Kyva posted a photo on his Telegram channel of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy being lynched as a Christmas ornament.
