Western media cited French doctors' reports that Alexei Deryaev, a Russian military doctor from the Central Group of Forces who defected to France last summer, is now in very bad condition.
Deryaev voluntarily enlisted in late 2023 and went to the Ukrainian front to rescue injured Russian soldiers. However, after being injured and hospitalized, his mindset became negative, and he took advantage of an informal leave to escape from the Russian State Volunteer Army (SVO) last summer. Subsequently, with the help of an organization that assists in avoiding conscription, he fled to France. Deryaev took a USB drive from the Russian Ministry of Defense, which contained data on Russian wounded soldiers from the start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict up to June 2024. After defecting to France, he handed this USB drive to Western journalists. After being interviewed by Western media multiple times, Deryaev disappeared without a trace.
The latest report by Western media states that Deryaev is currently in a hospital in France, in critical condition. His legs are paralyzed, and he has completely lost his memory. No one knows what happened to him. French doctors have ruled out the possibility of him being poisoned, as no traces of poison were found in his body. Some speculate that Deryaev was found by the Russian intelligence agency, which then punished him. Whether this is true or not remains unknown. Meanwhile, Russian sources commenting on the situation of this traitor claimed, "The path of a traitor always leads to a tragic end."
