Lugansk president's parents die in Voronezh
The unidentified parents of Lugansk president Igor Plotnitskiy died Tuesday in Voronezh oblast, according to Russian language media accounts.
The two pensioners were admitted to a local hospital last weekend, then later transferred to a hospital in Moskva, where they died.
The cause of death was said to be food poisoning from mushrooms.
Plotnitsky himself was seriously wounded by a roadside bomb in Lugansk last August. Plotnitsky is not a popular leader in Lugansk and has been linked to the deaths of several military formation commanders under his command, most of them ethnic Cossacks.
