A Russian pilot who defected last year during the war in Ukraine has reportedly been executed by firing squad in Spain.

Andriy Yusov, a representative of Ukraine's Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR), confirmed to the Kyiv Post the death of Russian pilot Kuzminov, who took control of a Russian Mi-8 armored combat helicopter and brought it safely to an air base in the Kharkiv region in August 2023.

"We can confirm the fact of death," he said, giving no additional details.

According to Russian media, 28-year-old Maksim Kuzminov was shot dead, with at least five bullets in his body. It was found in an underground car park in the municipality of Villajoyosa, in the province of Alicante, Spain.

Last August, Ukrainian intelligence conducted a successful operation "Titmouse", where Russian pilot Maxim Kuzminov voluntarily brought a Mi-8 helicopter from Russia to the Kharkiv region, into the hands of Ukrainian military intelligence.

According to HUR, the operation included not only the capture of the Mi-8 helicopter, but also the acquisition of valuable documentation and secret technical equipment.

The pilot said his motive was opposition to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, saying he wanted no part of it. In exchange for carrying out this special operation, he was offered security guarantees, new documents and monetary compensation.
