CNN —Anti-Kremlin Russian activist Ildar Dadin has been killed while fighting for Ukraine in Kharkiv, according to his friend and Russian independent media.
Dadin was once jailed in Russia for repeatedly protesting the government of Russian President Vladimir Putin, in a series of peaceful street demonstrations.
He was the first person to be convicted under a 2014 law that cracked down on public assembly and protests in Russia, according to Amnesty International.
Ukraine said it shot down 32 Russian drones and two missiles overnight and on Monday morning.
Meanwhile, the General Staff of Ukraine reported that it successfully struck an offshore oil terminal in Russian-occupied Crimea, near the city of Feodosia.
