Summary
A Russian artist known for his biting caricatures of Putin, Stalin, and Navalny was fatally shot in Poland — sparking international alarm over the safety of dissidents abroad. The victim, Semyon Skrepetsky, who fled Russia in 2021 fearing persecution, was found shot multiple times, including a fatal head wound. Polish authorities have arrested a suspect holding a Georgian passport, while also probing links to detained Belarusians and Chechens — all potential players in this chilling assassination. Prime Minister Tusk confirmed the arrest, as investigators race to uncover who ordered the killing of a man who dared to speak truth to power — even when it meant criticizing his own opposition.
