General Kirillov: Bomb attack in Moscow shakes security forces!

A fatal attack shakes Moscow: General Kirillov dies from an insidious bomb!

In a shocking incident that puts the Russian capital in turmoil, Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, the highest ranking officer of the nuclear protective workers, was brutally killed! An explosive device, hidden in an electric scooter, exploded and demanded his life and that of his assistant.

The attack occurred on Tuesday in front of a residential building on the Ryazansky brochure. The investigative authorities of Russia confirmed the cruel deed and reported an explosive device with an explosive force of around 300 grams of TNT equivalent. The pictures that circulate on Russian telegram channels show the devastated entrance area of the building, littered with rubble and bloody snow spots, where the corpses of the two men were.

Kirillov was not only a high -ranking military leader, but also the face of the troops for radiological, chemical and biological defense. These special units specialize in operating under conditions of radioactive, chemical and biological contamination. The tragedy throws a bright light on the dangers that are exposed to high -ranking military in Russia.

The circumstances of the attack are particularly alarming. Residents reported a blatant lack of surveillance cameras in the area, which strongly endangered security in this residential area. Maria Shapovalova from Al Jazeera, who reports from Moscow, said: "The residents of the residential complex have been sued for years. The cameras have not recorded what happened in these apartment blocks."

political tensions and allegations

The situation becomes even more complicated by the recent allegations against Kirillov. On Monday, he was accused of war crimes by Ukrainian prosecutors, including the alleged use of prohibited chemical weapons in Ukraine. Russia vehemently rejects these accusations.

In October, the United Kingdom imposed sanctions against Kirillov and its troops for using irritant gases and reports on the use of the toxic substance Chlorpikrin on the battlefield. Chlorpikrin, a well -known suffocal, was already used as a tear gas in the First World War and is prohibited in accordance with the guidelines of the organization for the ban on chemical weapons (OPCW).

Russia claims that it no longer has military chemical weapons arsenal, but is increasingly exposed to pressure to show more transparency about the alleged use of chemical weapons. The security services of Ukraine have documented over 4,800 missions of chemical weapons since February 2022, in particular the use of K-1 combat grenades.
