A Ukrainian official has been killed in Kyiv amid confusing claims he had been executed for working for Russia.
Denis Kireev, 45, died just a week after he attended the first round of peace talks between Russia and Ukraine in Belarus.
Images of his body lying lifeless on the street emerged online and the Ukraine Ministry of Defence confirmed his death on behalf of the Chief Management of Intelligence in a tribute to three fallen ‘scouts’ without confirming the cause.
However, earlier a Ukrainian MP had claimed Mr Kireev had committed “treason” and was executed by the Ukrainian intelligence agency, The Sun reports.
