Investigative Image
A high-ranking Russian general has been declared dead following an explosion in Moscow, according to official statements.
The attack took place on Monday morning when an explosive device placed beneath a vehicle exploded, leading to the death of Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov.
Sarvarov served as the head of the armed forces' operational training department.
The committee stated that one theory under investigation suggests the potential involvement of Ukrainian intelligence services. To date, Ukraine has not issued a comment.
Location of the Attack
Teams have been sent to the scene, which is understood to be in a southerly district of the city.
Reports state the detonation occurred in a vehicle lot close to a residential building.
Series of Assaults
Since the beginning of the full-scale conflict in Ukraine, a string of Russian military officials have been attacked within Moscow.
This most recent event follows other serious incidents, including:
- General Yaroslav Moskalik was lost his life in a automobile blast in Moscow earlier this year.
- General Igor Kirillov perished in late 2024 when a explosive hidden on a scooter was set off from a distance.
While a informant in the past attributed Kirillov's death to Ukraine's security service, such assertions are not formally acknowledged as a matter of policy.
Hostilities has witnessed shadowy operations moving into the heart of the Russian capital.
The investigation into General Sarvarov's death continues to be ongoing.
