A Ukrainian lawmaker who formerly served as speaker of parliament was shot dead on Saturday (August 30, 2025) in the western city of Lviv, authorities said, in what President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned as a “horrific murder”.
Mr. Zelenskyy vowed a thorough investigation into the killing of Andriy Parubiy, a well-known politician who was parliamentary speaker in the 2010s.
