Russia’s SK state investigative committee said preliminary information indicated Kyva was shot dead in the village of Suponevo, to the west of Moscow.
Kyva had campaigned unsuccessfully for Ukraine’s presidency in 2019 and left the country only a month before Russia launched its full-scale invasion in February 2022.
In a separate development, Russian-backed politician Oleg Popov was killed in a car bombing in Ukraine’s eastern Luhansk city on Wednesday, local officials said.
His death came a few weeks after fellow Luhansk region lawmaker Mikhail Filiponenko was killed in a similar attack that was claimed by Kyiv.
Since the Russian invasion, the SBU and military intelligence have claimed a number of successful operations against high-value targets in the country’s occupied regions as well as in Russia itself.
Last week, the SBU said it had blown up a rail connection in Russia’s Far East near the border with China that served as a major transportation hub.
