Former head of the occupation administration was blown up in Luhansk

In temporarily occupied Luhansk, Manolis Pilavov, the former so-called “mayor” of the city, who headed the pro-Russian administration from 2014 to 2023, was killed in an explosion.

This is reported by Russian Telegram channels close to the security forces.

According to preliminary information, the explosive device was planted near the entrance door of the house on Tarasa Shevchenko Street. The fatal detonation occurred when the door was opened. As a result, Pilavov died on the spot, and three more people were injured.

The incident occurred near the local history museum, where an exhibition dedicated to Operation Stream, the gas pipeline to Suja, was being opened.

There is currently no official comment from the Ukrainian side.

Since 2014, Pilavov has actively supported the creation of the pseudo-republic of the “LPR” and publicly called on local residents to cooperate with the occupation authorities.

As a reminder, a high-ranking military officer, Major General Mikhail Gudkov, who had recently taken up the position of Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy, was eliminated in the border region of the Kursk region of Russia .

As reported, on June 18, in the temporarily occupied Berdyansk, Zaporizhia region , a collaborator, traitor to the state, and war criminal, Mykhailo Hrytsai, was killed.
