Summary

A Russian general, Lt. Gen. Igor Kirillov, was killed by a bomb hidden in a scooter outside his Moscow apartment, reportedly carried out by Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU).

Kirillov, sanctioned for alleged war crimes, was accused of directing the use of banned chemical weapons.

The attack, triggered remotely, also killed his assistant. Russia vowed retribution, calling it terrorism.

This follows a series of high-profile assassinations since the invasion of Ukraine, as tensions escalate amid Russia’s military advances.
