Serghei Skripal
Serghei Skripal is a former Russian military officer and double agent who became widely known after surviving a nerve agent poisoning in Salisbury, England, in March 2018. Skripal had been a spy for the UK's intelligence agency, MI6, providing information about Russian military operations. The incident, which also involved the poisoning of his daughter Yulia, led to a major international crisis and increased tensions between the UK and Russia. Following the attack, Skripal and his daughter were treated in a hospital and later recovered, but the event drew attention to the dangers faced by defectors and the ongoing espionage activities linked to the Kremlin.
