The general of the occupying army Moskalyk was blown up near Moscow.

Explosion near Moscow: Russian army major general has died

An explosion occurred in the city of Balashikha near Moscow, during which Russian army major general Yaroslav Moskalyk, who held the position of deputy head of the Main Operational Directorate of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, was killed.

According to reports from Russian media, the explosion happened at 10:40 near a parked Volkswagen Golf as Moskalyk was passing by it. The general was thrown several meters by the blast wave.

A surveillance camera was installed in the car, which was likely used to record the moment when Moskalyk exited the building. The explosive device, according to preliminary data, was made based on VOGs - shots for an under-barrel grenade launcher.

Explosives were located all over the car, particularly in the left part of the trunk. The debris spread radius was about 300 meters.

This incident resembles the explosion that occurred in December 2024, when General Kirillov was eliminated in a similar manner. At that Time, there was also a surveillance camera in a nearby parked car, and the explosion happened precisely when the officer appeared near the vehicle.

Details regarding the cause of the explosion and potential masterminds behind this act of terrorism remain unknown. The investigation is looking into the event. The deceased general was honored by high-ranking officials of the Russian Federation and his colleagues from the army.
