Kasparov Warned of Russian Death List

Chess legend Garry Kasparov (63) says he's been warned by US and Lithuanian security services that he and his colleague Ivan Tjutrin are on a Russian assassination list.

Kasparov revealed the warning in social media, stating that while not surprising, the news is still shocking. He and Tjutrin co-founded the Free Russia Forum in 2016, which supports the Ukrainian military and organizes anti-war conferences.

Russia designated the forum as an 'undesirable organization' in 2023 and labeled it a 'terrorist organization' in 2025. Kasparov's warning comes after the US Department of Justice charged five alleged Russian intelligence agents with conspiring to carry out attacks and assassinations worldwide. ipltable.lol
