What is known about Krasovsky's poisoning

In particular, according to the information of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine representatives in a comment to journalists of the Kyiv Post-publication, Krasovsky was indeed poisoned, and he became worse.

The day before, Krasovsky himself declared that his health was deteriorating.

People ask if I'm alive or if I'm okay. Well what can I say? My stomach twisted sharply, I started to feel nauseous, then I fainted. I was taken to the clinic. I am gradually coming to my senses, the Kremlin propagandist replied.

The DIU notes that Krasovsky was poisoned.

His condition continues to deteriorate. It is likely that the last messages on the network were not written by the propagandist himself, the DIU unnamed represantative said for Kyiv Post.

What other Kremlin propagandists say about Krasovsky's condition

Krasovsky's colleague, the Kremlin propagandist Margarita Simonyan, claims that she spoke with him and that he is coming to his senses.

Probably, the last messages on the network were not written by the propagandist himself, the DIU believes meanwhile.

What is known about Krasovsky's scandalous statements towards Ukraine

In Russia, Anton Krasovsky is a pretty well-known media personality. As a journalist, he headed the Russian edition of Russia Today. Still, to Ukrainians, he is better known for his fascist call: in October 2022, on the air on rosTV, Krasovsky called for the drowning of Ukrainian children in the Tisza River if they do not agree to the occupation.

"He said that the Muscovites were occupying, and you immediately throw him into the river with a violent current," Krasovsky said.
