An officer from Russia’s foreign intelligence agency and his wife were reportedly targeted by a car bomb in Moscow, according to Russia’s TASS news agency.

Several news outlets named Andrei Torgashov and his wife as the two victims of the attack.

Russia’s interior ministry has said that the blast was caused by the detonation of an unidentified object after a man and a woman got into a parked Toyota Land Cruiser.

  1. Very interesting. This was not shot from a security camera on a building. The image is moving slightly and was shot from a drone. Sooooo it begs the question as to this being a pretty sophisticated operation in urban Moscow. Someone identified Torgashov. Then they identified his car. Then someone planted the bomb, connecting the detonating device (in daylight in an open air parking lot?) and then someone else operating a drone to record the "battle damage assessment." And one must wonder why no one–again, an urban area–noticed the drone and alerted authorities. Or maybe some did alert authorities about the drone, but insufficient time to do anything, not knowing the target. Impressive!

  2. I guess the young man who was interviewed about the incident understands that if the war continues he will be conscripted to learn how to use weapons and explosives as well..? Hopefully Russian people understand that.

  3. Stop the lies and stop the war. Almost a third of Ukraine's population believe Kyiv should surrender some territory to Russia in exchange for peace, a new survey says. The percentage of Ukrainians willing to make territorial concessions to Moscow in exchange for peace has tripled over the past year, according to a recent poll by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS).
