A Russian artist known for his satirical depictions of Vladimir Putin has been found shot dead in Poland. Polish authorities have arrested two Belarusian nationals in connection with the killing, though details surrounding the motive remain unclear. The artist, who had publicly criticised the Kremlin and recently expressed fears for his safety, was living in exile. Investigators are working to determine if the shooting was politically motivated or linked to other factors. The incident has raised concerns about the safety of Russian and Belarusian dissidents living abroad. Further investigation is underway to establish the full circumstances of the artist’s death and the connection of the arrested individuals.
