The Moscow-installed senior official of the occupied region of Kherson in Ukraine, Kirill Stremousov, died on Wednesday, according to Russian media and the regional governor, APA reports citing Euro News.

Stremousov, who acted as the deputy governor in Kherson, was killed in "a car crash", the governor's office stated.

Stremousov was one of the most vocal proponents of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in late February. He has been wanted for treason by the Ukrainian authorities since his appointment two months into the invasion.

"Kirill Stremousov perished. This is a huge tragedy, an irreparable loss," Sergei Aksionov, the Kremlin-installed leader of Crimea, said on Telegram.
