Russia blames Ukraine for assassination attempt on military official in Moscow

Russian officials said the deputy chief of military intelligence, Vladimir Alekseyev, was targeted by "an unidentified individual."

A Russian general was shot at an apartment building in Moscow on Friday and taken to a hospital, Russian officials said.

Investigative Committee spokesperson Svetlana Petrenko said in a statement that "an unidentified individual fired several shots" at Vladimir Alekseyev, the deputy chief of military intelligence.

The spokesperson did not say who could be behind the shooting, and did not provide immediate information about Alekseyev's condition.

A report by Russian business daily Kommersant cited by the Associated Press said the shooter posed as a delivery person and fired at Alekseyev in the stairway of his apartment building, wounding the general in the foot and arm. In an ensuing scuffle, Alekseyev tried to wrestle the gun away and was shot again in the chest before the assailant fled, the report said.

When asked about the shooting, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov described it as a "terrorist act" by Ukraine intended to derail peace talks between Russian, Ukrainian and US negotiators that concluded in Abu Dhabi yesterday. The Kremlin said Russian President Vladimir Putin has been informed about the shooting, without sharing further details.

Ukrainian authorities haven't commented on the attack.

Alekseyev has served as deputy chief of Russian military intelligence since 2011, and led intelligence operations during Russia's intervention in the Syrian civil war.


Russian military officers targeted in the past
Since the start of the war in Ukraine, several top Russian military officers have been assassinated. The latest incident involved Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov, ‌who was ‌killed by a bomb under his car on December 22.

In April 2025, senior Russian military officer, Lt. Gen. Yaroslav Moskalik, was killed by a car bomb near his apartment building outside Moscow. A suspected perpetrator was quickly arrested.

Moscow has blamed previous assassinations on Kyiv. In some cases, Ukrainian military intelligence has claimed responsibility, such as with the December 2024 killing of Igor Kirillov, the head of the Russian army's chemical weapons division, who was killed by a bomb hidden on an electric scooter outside his apartment building

Honestly, in what world can someone walk up to a military general, gain access to his home, shoot him, and escape? This alone says everything about how Russia has been reduced to a paper tiger, its intelligence and security clearly amount to nothing.

A top Russian military figure was shot in his own home, with shocking ease.
Why isn’t Writterng talking about this?

The Ukraine Intelligence Agency are TERRIFYINGLY effective.

One of the reasons for this is that their agents look like Russians and speak similar languages.

They can INFILTRATE Russia without getting a second glance from anybody.

It's the same reason why MOSSAD is so effective in the Middle East.

Anyway, Ukraine would have been a better SUPERPOWER than Russia if they hadn't surrendered their Nuclear Weapons.

Imagine this happened in Nigeria, the "finishing specialist" and his bitter supporters would have been jumping all over social media. They would even tell you that it is only in Nigeria such a thing could happen.

Top Generals are always open to easy attacks in countries like Russia and others because they don't surround themselves with battalions of military personnels like they do in Nigeria. How will a military man be living his private life as if he was in a war zone as they do in nigeria huh, although they are protected from easy attacks, they are not different from common prisoners who are always being guarded every minute of the day undecided

A whole General living in an apartment building.

In Nigeria, a new junior officer is walking through an airport with a fire arm and disrespecting staffs simply because he was cheered on initially.

How did a junior officer acquire a personal fire arm? For what reason? That is the exclusive “privilege “ and not “rights” of eve very senior officers.

The speak similar Language because they are primarily from same forefather, I wonder how Humans degrade mentally to the Level of killing one another like this. To even think that these are so called Advanced Countries that Africans look up to, yet they couldn't be sensible enough to live as brothers.

The mistake u make is that u believe Russia is the Soviet union. No! Russia isn't..

A collection of countries was calls upon by their biggest neighbor and talked into collapsing their resources and some. Level of government into one big strong body whose capital will b Moscow ND in the aggreement, each member nation gains are so listed .

That is how the Soviet union came about.. not that it is Russia

So when the group hot tired of Russians high-handedness, they sought to break up, but Russia being their have the most resources and command their general army, refused them to separate..

Ultimately, God touched a certain Russian leader Mr Guberchov, who gave them their freedom...

After that split alot of Soviet resources belong to the entire block are scattered all over her fmr territory.. ND Russia went into try to claim most especially those which HV significant military value..


Many with hesitation gave handed it over.. but Ukraine refused.. knowing how Russia was adamantly reluctant to cede them back their nation.. but a US and EU security guarantee to Ukraine meant they gave it up..

ND today, as predicted, they regret it ND the group that gave the security gurantee are too afraid to stand up to Russia..

This is exactly why zelensky has been very very strict and same time careful about new conflict deal with Russia and he knows them not to keep to deals

lol! Even a 2years ar old baby knows that Soviet union are collections of different countries before it was dissolved in December 1991 to 15 post Soviet countries. The mistake other Soviet countries made was transfering their nuclear arsenal especially the nuclear command briefcase to Russia not knowing they would one day turn against them.

Using Nigeria or most African countries as yardstick to measure the lifestyle of top military officers in other parts of the world is amazing. Let’s not forget that a former CDS was murdered in cold blood. The military is trained for external threats and aggression not to intimidate citizens who they swore to protect their lives and territorial integrity. So yes these generals live amongst their citizenry in apartments like normal people not in motorcades or high rise fences with armed to the teeth guards like we have in Nigeria.

Common sense no common at all.
