A Russian artist known for his critical caricatures of Vladimir Putin was shot dead in eastern Poland. The police believe the killing was premeditated, though the motive remains unknown. The suspect is believed to have fired five shots at the victim's head, chest, and back near a Belarusian consulate. Two Belarusian citizens were detained near the scene, but their involvement is still under investigation. The artist used the pseudonym Semjon Skrepecki and was known for satirical depictions of Putin, Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko, and Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin.
