    Notable Victims of the Russo-Ukrainian war

    Dadin's death was reported by former Ekho Moskvy presenter Ksenia Larina, tweeting, "Just got word that Ildar Dadin has died. In a battle in Kharkivshchina." There is no other confirmation of his death at the moment. In 2015, Ildar Dadin became the first person convicted under Article 212.1 of the Russian Criminal Code ("Repeated violation of the established order for organising or holding a rally"). This article later received the unofficial name "Dadin's". In March 2022, Dadin emigrated to Poland. In June 2023, he joined the "Siberian Battalion" fighting on the side of the AFU, where he received the call sign "Gandhi". x.com, theins.ru
