Andrey Ilyich Khrzhanovskiy (born May 2, 1998), known online as Andrey X, is a Russian-Israeli journalist and activist against Israeli settler violence in the West Bank. He has gained prominence during the Gaza war. The son and grandson, respectively, of filmmakers Ilya and Andrei Khrzhanovsky, Andrey X was born and raised in Saint Petersburg. After traveling to several countries to pursue an education, he went back to Russia, where he worked as a journalist. He left the country upon the outbreak of the Russo-Ukrainian War, settling in Israel and gaining its citizenship. There, he grew sympathetic to the Palestinian cause and began to document settler violence in the West Bank, where he has since resided. Khrzhanovskiy's positioning has been characterized as far-left, and his activism has been met with societal controversy as well as legal issues in Israel.
