A Russian general was killed by a car bomb just outside Moscow
April 25, 2025
MOSCOW (AP) - A Russian general was killed by a car bomb on Friday,
Russia's top criminal investigation agency said, in the second such attack
on a top Russian military officer in four months.
The Investigative Committee said that Lt. Gen. Yaroslav Moskalik, a deputy head of the main operational department in the General Staff of the
Russian armed forces, was killed by an explosive device placed in his car
in Balashikha, just outside Moscow.
The committee did not mention possible suspects.
The attack follows the killing of Lt. Gen. Igor Kirillov, who died on Dec.
17 when a bomb hidden on an electric scooter parked outside his apartment building exploded as he left for his office. The Russian authorities
blamed Ukraine for the killing of Kirillov, and Ukraine's security agency acknowledged that it was behind that attack.
