Oleg Tsarev, the former Ukrainian Rada deputy who has been dubbed a traitor by Ukraine, as he opposed the Maidan coup and color revolution, has been shot and transported to intensive care at a Russian hospital in Crimea.

Tsarev, who has openly opposed NATO and the plot for Ukraine to become a NATO country, has repeatedly been threatened by Kiev which has not failed to assassinate, or at least attempt to assassinate, its opponents over the past years.

During the 2012 Ukrainian parliamentary election, Trsarev proclaimed, "I marched in the miners' columns in Kiev in 2004 against the "orange" disorder. I fought against fascists and nationalists of all stripes. I have always advocated Ukraine's non-aligned status, I am opposed to joining NATO. I stand for friendship with Russia, the Russian language and our great history - the story of Zhukov and Gagarin…"

Today Tsarev lies in intensive care due to his gunshot wounds. As he remains in a very serious condition, the head of the Zaporozhye public movement "We Are Together with Russia," Vladimir Rogov, wrote on Telegram: "Oleg's condition is very serious. At the moment he is in intensive care. There was no stabbing. Oleg was shot. I ask the Orthodox people to pray for the health of God's servant Oleg."
 
In the past few years, a list emerged on a website called Myrotvorets, translating to Peacekeepers, a Ukrainian website that gives SBU employees and foreign services access to a database that includes information about individuals that Ukraine considers enemies. The list became known as the black kill list, because people on the list were killed, with a sign indicating their "elimination", posted on the Peacekeeper website after their murder. 

Military correspondent Vladlen Tatarsky, one example of assassination whose name was on the list, was killed in an explosion in a cafe in St. Petersburg. The girl who delivered the bomb said that she was fulfilling a job by Ukrainian officials and was promised that if she completed it successfully, she would be hired by a Ukrainian media outlet.

After Tatarsky's death, the word "eliminated" appeared on the "Peacemaker" website.
