Litvinenko poisoner dies

In reports being attributed to Russian news agency Tass, Mr Kovtun is said to have contracted coronavirus before dying in a Moscow hospital.

Mr Kovtun, along with Andrei Lugovoi, was accused of being behind Mr Litvinenko's assassination 16 years ago at the Millennium Hotel in Mayfair.

Reports said Tass cited Mr Lugovoi, now a member of Russia's Parliament, as saying he was mourning the death of a "close and faithful friend".
