Pravda Publisher Dies in Fall: Concerns Raised Over Russian Deaths
Another prominent Russian figure, Vyacheslav Leontyev, the 87-year-old former head of the Pravda publishing house, has died after falling from a window in Moscow. Leontyev’s death, occurring on Saturday evening, is under investigation by police, with possibilities including accident, suicide, or foul play. His passing adds to a concerning pattern of high-profile deaths in Russia, with several other business leaders and officials also dying in similar circumstances in recent years. These incidents have raised suspicions, particularly given the context of the ongoing war in Ukraine and potential connections to the Russian elite.
