Russian Oil Company Chairman Reportedly Dies in Fall from Hospital Window

HeadlineSep 02, 2022

In Moscow, the chair of the Russian energy giant Lukoil has died under mysterious circumstances. Russia’s TASS news agency reported Ravil Maganov fell from the sixth-story window of a Moscow hospital Thursday morning, then later reported he had taken his own life. Magonov presided over a meeting of Lukoil’s board shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine in February, where board members called for a speedy end to the conflict and expressed sympathy for the war’s victims. Maganov is the latest of several high-profile Russian business elites to die under unusual circumstances in recent months.
