A native of Chechnya and official of the German far-right populist party «Alternative for Germany» (AfD), Noah Krieger (real name — Murad Dadaev), has arrived in Donetsk Oblast. He reported this on his social media.

«I came in person, with my own eyes I saw what they show on television and what the news keeps silent about. I am here to see everything directly. This is no joke, brothers. This is a harsh reality where the fate of our Mother Rus is being decided», Dadaev wrote under a post on his Instagram three days ago.

Judging by the published photos and videos, the AfD member visited Avdiivka, «Important Stories» noted. In one frame, he is standing near the destroyed Avdiivka Coke and Chemical Plant; in another, he poses by the entrance sign. Dadaev also published a video filmed near the memorial to «hero-liberators», which Russian authorities installed in honor of soldiers who died during the assaults on Avdiivka.

In Donetsk Oblast, Dadaev-Krieger is accompanied by Akhmat members. In one of the videos, he is filmed together with Dzhambulat Dadaev, who is wearing an «Akhmat Sila» chevron.

In June, Dadaev attended the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF), where, judging by his Instagram, he appeared as one of the speakers.

Murad Dadaev is the subject of an investigation by «Important Stories» and Correctiv. In Hanover, Germany, he rented a luxurious 19th-century villa where he held meetings of the local AfD branch. Within the party, Dadaev promoted pro-Kremlin narratives. In spring 2026, AfD began proceedings to expel him after a trip to Chechnya, where he met with representatives of the authorities and security agencies.

During his visit to Grozny, Dadaev attended a session of the Chechen parliament with Ramzan Kadyrov present, gifted Chechen officials a Luftwaffe dagger bearing a swastika, and met with Zamid Chalaev, commander of the Kadyrov special-purpose police regiment, under whose command extrajudicial executions are carried out in Chechnya.

In addition, Dadaev is the brother of Suleyman Dadaev, a participant in the 2009 killing of an opponent of Ramzan Kadyrov in Vienna. In Germany, he maintained contacts both with German politicians and with members of the Chechen diaspora close to Kadyrov and linked to organized crime groups.
