Ukrainian Patriot Dmytro Tymchuk
Prominent Ukrainian MP and military affairs analyst Dmytro Tymchuk has been found shot dead at his home in the capital Kiev.
It is unclear whether he was murdered, killed himself deliberately or shot himself accidentally with his pistol, the interior ministry says.
A fellow MP from the People's Front party said his friend had been found with a gunshot wound to the head.
Mr Tymchuk had blogged extensively about the conflict in eastern Ukraine.
Ukraine country profile
Just a day before his death, summarized on Facebook (in Ukrainian) the latest fighting along the line dividing government forces and the eastern separatists, whom he called "Russian occupation forces".
Anton Herashchenko, the MP who reported his death on Facebook, paid homage to the analyst, saying: "We will all miss you very much."
Other tributes on Facebook speak of his "invaluable contribution to the fight for Ukraine" and question how a man from a military background could have accidentally shot himself.
Asked what lines of inquiry police were pursuing, interior ministry spokesman Artem Shevchenko said: "It is one of three things: murder, suicide or negligent handling of a weapon."
Mr Tymchuk was a former naval officer who came to national prominence in 2014 with his blogging on Russia's annexation of Crimea and the conflict in eastern Ukraine.
In particular, he set up the Information Resistance blog, which seeks to expose Russian military involvement in the ongoing conflict.

A strange death
By Zhanna Bezpiatchuk, BBC News
At the high point of the conflict in Eastern Ukraine, Dmytro Tymchuk was one of the main newsmakers for Ukrainians.
In the information vacuum, chaos and panic of the war that had just broken out, he positioned himself as an independent military analyst with his own intelligence sources and access to leaks.
But actually his role was seen by many as that of a person who said out loud what Ukrainian officials could not for diplomatic and other reasons.
Journalists often referred to Tymchuk as a person who was able to explain what was really going on on the battlegrounds of the hybrid war from the Ukrainian viewpoint.
He came out with the toughest criticism of Russia and always blamed it for this war. Once he was elected to the parliament, he switched to legislative work.
Given he was a newsmaker during the war who knew a lot, his strange death raises concerns and suspicions in Ukraine.

I wonder if he was any way involved with the Clinton deal to sell our uranium....
I wonder if he was connected to the Ukrainian ‘black cash ledger’ melodrama that’s come out in connection with Paul Manafort? Someone might be intent on killing the witnesses.
arkancide is global..
The 46-year-old Tymchuk gained prominence as a blogger after he reported details about Russia’s seizure and annexation of Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula in February-March 2014.
“He also reported on activities by Moscow aimed at inciting separatism in Ukraine’s eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk in April 2014.
Tymchuk then created a group called Information Resistance that seeks to counter Russian propaganda by exposing disinformation.
Tymchuk became a member of Ukraine’s parliament, the Verkhovna Rada, in October 2014 as a candidate of the People’s Front political party.”

Tymchuk served in the Ukrainian army from 1995 to 1997 and then worked at the headquarters of the National Guard of Ukraine until 2000. From 2000 to 2012, he worked in various divisions of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. He served in Iraq, Kosovo, and Lebanon. His highest military rank is Lieutenant colonel.
In 2008, Tymchuk became the chief editor of the online publication Fleet-2017 and HEAD of the NGO CENTER for MILITARY-POLITICAL STUDIES. He is one of the coordinators of the INFORMATION RESISTENCE news website. During the 2014 pro-Russian unrest in Ukraine and war in Donbass, Tymchuk became one of the most popular Ukrainian online activists in Ukraine and was extensively cited on the situation in the country. In November 2014, the number of those following his Facebook page exceeded 190,000 IP addresses.
Tymchuk became a founding member of the new party People’s Front on 10 September 2014, 46 days before the 2014 Ukrainian parliamentary election. He was elected to the Verkhovna Rada (Ukrainian parliament).

Whom he called "Russian occupation forces"?? That is exactly what they are. Who is this author?
Write today’s date on the wall. At long last we have something bad happen that wasn’t caused by Globull Warming.
Wait about 48 to 96 hours and the story will probably have a new spin, except for one thing....the guy will still be dead.
Check his bank account.
Are there entries on the Black Ledger?
“Biden was acting not like a U.S. vice president, but as an individual,” he said to ABC News, “like the individual interested in having me removed — having me gone so that I did not interfere in the Burisma investigation.”
In 2018, during a speech to the Council on Foreign Relations, Biden bragged about strong-arming the Urkanian government.
“If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money.” Biden recalled saying, “Well, son of a bitch, he got fired.”
Ukrainian Arkancide?
