Actor Vasily Skromny from the film "The Adventures of Electronics" has died.

Vasily Skromny, best known for his role as Makar Gusev in the film "The Adventures of Electronics," has died at the age of 62. The cause of death was cancer, according to AiF.

According to other sources, Vasily Skromny had been battling cancer for several months and undergoing chemotherapy. The situation was further complicated by heart problems that arose during treatment.

Skromny was born in Odessa in 1964 and became a star of the 1980s after the release of the acclaimed three-part film "The Adventures of Electronics." Despite the film's enormous success, the aspiring actor never pursued film. He appeared in a few more films before enrolling in a naval academy and joining the navy.

It was previously reported that blogger Lerchek, who recently gave birth to her fourth child and is under house arrest due to a multi-million dollar fraud scheme, is suffering from cancer. She was diagnosed with stage IV stomach cancer with metastases.
