“My husband is alive, I am alive. You understand that you are calling now at the wrong time, I have important calls. I can’t say anything more."

  • Maya Torgashova (pictured), the wife of the deputy head of the transmitting radio center 89 of the satellite communications center of the Russian Armed Forces Andrei Torgashov, whose car was blown up today in the north of Moscow, told ASTRA.

Previously TV channel 360 reported that Torgashov’s wife allegedly said that “another person was injured” in the car.

The Kremlin channel published audio allegedly of a conversation with Torgashov, but there is no confirmation that he is the one speaking on the recording.

Andrey Torgashov did not answer ASTRA’s calls.
