Breaking News: Russian Filmmaker Tigran Keosayan in Coma
In a shocking turn of events, Margarita Simonyan, the editor-in-chief of the Russian propaganda media outlet Russia Today (RT), revealed that her husband, Tigran Keosayan, has suffered clinical death and is currently in a coma. The news, shared in a Jan. 8 Telegram post, has sparked speculation and rumors surrounding the cause of Keosayan’s sudden illness.
Social Media Speculation and Allegations
Following the announcement of Keosayan’s condition, social media platforms have been flooded with rumors linking his illness to Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR). Pro-Russian blogger Anatoly Shariy claimed that Keosayan was poisoned by HUR operatives on the personal orders of Ukrainian President Zelensky. Allegedly, the poisoning took place at a Moscow restaurant where Tigran and Margarita were dining, leading to severe health issues for Keosayan.
Shariy further mentioned that traditional treatments have proven ineffective in treating Keosayan’s deteriorating condition. According to his sources, a toxic substance caused a sphincter rupture and ultimately led to clinical death. The blogger also suggested that the toxin used was specifically designed to target individuals considered propagandists by the Ukrainian government, hinting that Margarita Simonyan might have been the actual target.
Response and Verification Challenges
Despite these claims, the Kyiv Post could not independently confirm the allegations of HUR involvement in Keosayan’s poisoning. The publication reached out to intelligence sources, who declined to comment on the matter. This incident comes after a similar poisoning case involving Anton Kuznetsov-Krasovsky, a former director at Russia Today, who advocated for extreme measures against Ukrainians.
The situation remains fluid, with conflicting reports and unverified information circulating online. The complexities of international relations and ongoing conflicts add layers of uncertainty to the narrative surrounding Keosayan’s health crisis.
