Assassination^[Reuters: Ukrainian ex-politician shot dead outside elite American school in Madrid]

Date: 2025-05-21

Location: Madrid, Spain (2,200 km from Ukraine)

Victim: Andriy Portnov, former Ukrainian politician

[Image CW: Dead body]

Portnov was shot dead in the back and head while waiting to pick up his children from school.

Portnov worked for Ukrainian President Yanukovych and escaped the country back in 2014 following the CIA-backed coup. He vocally supported Zelenskyy (the "peace candidate") in the 2019 election and returned to Ukraine that same year. Peace did not come, however, and three years later (after Russia entered the war) he once again fled Ukraine for safety.

Historian Marta Havryshko speculated^[@HavryshkoMarta on Twitter] that he knew too much about Zelenskyy's corruption schemes.

Suicide Bombing^[SVO veteran Zaur Gurtsiev died as a result of an explosion in Stavropol. What is known]

Date: 2025-05-29

Gurtsyev was standing outside an apartment building when "an acquaintance" approached him within a meter and then detonated himself, killing them both. It was caught on video by a surveillance camera^[[CW: Graphic] Surveillance footage of Russian deputy mayor murdered in suicide bombing]. He was 34.

Gurtsyev was a veteran and likely targeted for his involvement in the 2022 liberation of Mariupol, an Azov Battalion stronghold^[Greek in Mariupol: “The fascist Ukrainians would kill me, they don’t let us leave the city”].

Only about 1/3^rd^ of the article is about COVID, but this comm seemed more appropriate than a general one like /c/chapotraphouse.

[R]esearchers interviewed physicians who administer euthanising drugs in Canada to glean insights about their state of mind and reaction to what is assumed to be traumatising work.

The results were disturbing.

Some described feeling ‘an adrenaline rush’ at the moment of death, others said that watching someone die was ‘liberating.’ Some said they laugh together when discussing how to force euthanasia on reluctant patients and their families. One person said administering the lethal drugs causes for them ‘an urgent and pressing need for sex.’
