An esteemed Russian general has been killed following an blast in Moscow, according to official statements.
The incident occurred on Monday morning when an IED placed beneath a vehicle exploded, leading to the death of Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov.
Sarvarov served as the head of the armed forces' department for training operations.
The committee indicated that one line of inquiry involves the potential involvement of Ukrainian intelligence services. At this time, Ukraine has remained silent.
Site of the Incident
Officials have been dispatched to the location, which is said to be in a southern district of the city.
Accounts indicate the blast happened in a parking area adjacent to a residential building.
Series of Targeted Attacks
Since the beginning of the large-scale conflict in Ukraine, a number of Russian military officials have been subjected to assaults within Moscow.
This new event comes after other notable incidents, including:
- General Yaroslav Moskalik was died in a automobile blast in Moscow earlier this year.
- General Igor Kirillov perished in late 2024 when a device hidden on a scooter was detonated remotely.
While a Ukrainian source previously linked Kirillov's death to Ukraine's security service, such assertions are not publicly admitted as a matter of policy.
Hostilities has witnessed covert operations moving into the heart of the Russian capital.
The investigation into General Sarvarov's death remains underway.
