On Monday, a high-ranking Russian military officer lost his life after a bomb hidden beneath his vehicle exploded in southern Moscow, prompting a significant investigation.
Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov, who led the training department for the General Staff of the Russian military, was the victim. The explosion reportedly occurred while he was either near or inside his car.
According to investigators, the explosive device was concealed under the vehicle, killing the general instantly when it detonated. Police swiftly arrived at the site and cordoned off the area for further inquiry.
A murder investigation has been initiated concerning the death of the Russian general, with various potential motives being explored. A primary focus is the possibility of a connection to Ukrainian special forces, although this remains one of many avenues under consideration.
Since the onset of Russia’s military actions in Ukraine in February 2022, multiple attacks have targeted senior Russian military figures and government associates. These incidents have taken place both within Russia and in regions under Russian control.
Earlier in the year, General Yaroslav Moskalik was killed in a similar car bombing near Moscow. Additionally, in December, Igor Kirillov, who was responsible for Russia’s chemical and biological defense unit, lost his life to an explosive device attached to an electric scooter in the capital.
In previous incidents, some strikes have been claimed by Ukrainian security groups, yet officials caution that it's premature to determine the culprits behind this recent attack.
The assassination of the Russian general in Moscow has heightened security concerns for prominent military figures. Police and security forces are now on heightened alert as the investigation unfolds.
Experts highlight that such attacks typically require meticulous planning and are seldom instigated by a single factor. Authorities urge the public to refrain from spreading rumors as the inquiry continues.
