Traitor and acting MP Kovaliov killed in Kherson region – Khlan

Adviser to the head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration Serhii Khlan says that Oleksii Kovaliov, a member of the Verkhovna Rada, suspected of high treason, has been killed in Zaliznyi Port in Kherson region.

Khlan has written this on Facebook, Ukrainian News Agency reports.

"There has been information that the traitor ex-MP Oleksii Kovaliov was killed in Zaliznyi Port. The data needs to be clarified, but it is worth mentioning that the propaganda media also reported on the death of their "minister," although they immediately deleted it," he wrote.

It is worth noting that the collaborator is an MP and the Verkhovna Rada did not take away his mandate.

Deputy Chairman of the Kherson Regional Council Yurii Sobolevskyi reported that the Russians had gathered security forces in the occupied Hola Prystan to conduct checks on people.

As reported by Ukrainian News Agency, on June 30, an attempt was made on the traitor deputy, but he managed to survive.

At the request of the State Bureau of Investigation (SBI), MP Oleksii Kovaliov was placed in custody without the alternative of bail. The MP was declared wanted.

In April, employees of the SBI opened criminal proceedings against Kovaliov, who, after the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation, stayed in the temporarily occupied territory of Kherson region and was helping the occupying forces.

In the course of the investigation, it was established that at the beginning of July of this year, Oleksii Kovaliov assumed the position of deputy head of the "Government of Kherson region" illegally created by the occupying administration of the aggressor state.

Kovaliov organized the export of salt and grain from Kherson to the Russian Federation.
