Russian minister sacked by Putin found dead

5️⃣ Explain Like I'm 5

You know how in the game of musical chairs, the music stops and someone has to leave because there's no chair for them? Well, think of Russian politics like a big, serious game of musical chairs. A man named Starovoit, who was one of Putin's team members (like a player in the game), has been asked to leave the game. This is what 'sacked' means. But then, we found out that he didn't just leave the game, he was found dead. This is a bit like if in our game of musical chairs, we found one of the players didn't just leave the room but actually disappeared from the party altogether. It's a bit somber and serious, and people are trying to figure out what happened, just like we'd be puzzled if one of our friends disappeared from our party.

Imagine you're playing a game of chess. You're the king, and you've got all your pieces - pawns, knights, bishops, and so on. Now, you decide to remove one of your bishops (this is Putin sacking Starovoit). Suddenly, you find out that your bishop didn't just leave the board, but has vanished completely, it's nowhere to be found, it's as if it's dead. This is a shocker! It changes the game and makes everyone wonder what happened and why. That's basically what's happened in Russia. It's a big deal because it's unusual and could change the way the 'game' (or politics) plays out in the future.

Let's think of this as a season finale of your favorite political drama series where a major character is written off. The Russian President, Putin, dismissed or 'wrote off' a minister named Starovoit, like a character being removed from the show. Suddenly, in a shocking plot twist, this character doesn't just leave the show but is found dead. This creates a lot of buzz and speculation amongst the viewers (or in this case, the global community), about what led to it and what it could mean for the future plotlines (or political landscape). In real-world politics, such events could potentially signal power shifts, internal conflicts, or even foul play - just like the cliffhangers we anticipate in our favorite dramas.
